FOREWORD

PVTC has developed curricula for almost 101 various trades to cater for
the growing demands of industrial, agricultural, health and service
sectors. The training on these trades is being imparted in more than 284
Vocational Training Institutes (VTI’s) throughout Punjab. PVTC is
authorized by the PVTC ACT 1998 to take exams and issue certificates
after completion of training.

Skilled human resource is the prerequisite for the industrial progress of

any country. Moreover the Vocational and Technical Education is an
established way of poverty alleviation. Our country lacks the facility of
formal vocational training in numerous trade which leads to higher
manufacturing cost, low quality and poor productivity.

In view of suggestions / feedback received from the stakeholders, the

curriculum has once again been revised and upgraded with the active
participation of Curriculum Review Committee (CRC), keeping in view
the latest technological developments in the field.

PVTC is thankful to all CRC members, who have contributed towards the
revision / up-gradation of this manual.
