His Holiness Drubwang Padma Norbu Rinpoche founded the Ngagyur Nyingma Nunnery Institute (Tib: སྔ་འགྱུར་མཐོ་སློབ་མཚོ་རྒྱལ་བཤད་སྒྲུབ་ཐོས་བསམ་དགའ་བའི་ཚལ།, Wylie: snga-'gyur-mtho-slob-mtsho-rgyal-bshad-sgrub-thos-bsam-dga'-ba'i-tshal) in 1995. The nuns study a nine-year course on Sutra and Tantra along with poetry, grammar, composition and so on, which is virtually identical to that of NNI. In 2002 the institute began sending teachers to teach in other nunneries including: India, Bhutan, Nepal.
