2. TRAINING SYSTEM
2.1 GENERAL
The Directorate General of Training (DGT) under Ministry of Skill Development &
Entrepreneurship offers a range of vocational training courses catering to the need of different
sectors of economy/ Labour market. The vocational training programmes are delivered under
the aegis of Directorate General of Training (DGT). Craftsman Training Scheme (CTS) with
variants and Apprenticeship Training Scheme (ATS) are two pioneer schemes of DGT for
strengthening vocational training.
Mechanic Diesel trade under CTS is one of the popular courses delivered nationwide
through a network of ITIs. The course is of one-year duration. It mainly consists of Domain area
and Core area. The Domain area (Trade Theory & Practical) imparts professional skills and
knowledge, while Core area (Workshop Calculation and science, Engineering Drawing and
Employability Skills) imparts requisite core skill, knowledge and life skills. After passing out of
the training programme, the trainee is awarded National Trade Certificate (NTC) by DGT which
is recognized worldwide.
Can join industry as Technician and will progress further as Senior Technician, Supervisor
and can rise up to the level of Manager.
Can become Entrepreneur in the related field.
Can join Apprenticeship programme in different types of industries leading to National
Apprenticeship certificate (NAC).

The trainee will be tested for his skill, knowledge and attitude during the period of course
through formative assessment and at the end of the training programme through summative
assessment as notified by the DGT from time to time.
a) The Continuous Assessment (Internal) during the period of training will be done by
Formative Assessment Method by testing for assessment criteria listed against learning
outcomes. The training institute has to maintain an individual trainee portfolio as detailed in
assessment guideline. The marks of internal assessment will be as per the formative assessment
template provided on www.bharatskills.gov.in
b) The final assessment will be in the form of summative assessment. The All India Trade Test
for awarding NTC will be conducted by Controller of examinations, DGT as per the guidelines.
The pattern and marking structure is being notified by DGT from time to time. The learning
outcome and assessment criteria will be the basis for setting question papers for final
assessment. The examiner during final examination will also check the individual trainee’s
profile as detailed in assessment guideline before giving marks for practical examination.
