1. INTRODUCTION
The Ministry is implementing the Skill Development Initiative (SDI) Scheme based
on Modular Employable Skills (MES) to provide vocational training to early school leavers
and existing workers especially in the unorganized sector to develop skilled manpower for
the industry. Training is provided by registered Vocational Training Providers (VTPs) under
the Government, Private Sector, and Industrial establishments located all over the country.
Testing of skills acquired informally by an individual are directly tested on pre-determined
parameters through independent Assessing Bodies. Nationally as well as internationally
recognized NCVT certificate is issued to every successful individual.
The training under MES would benefit different target groups like workers seeking
certification of their skills acquired informally, workers seeking skill up gradation, and early
school dropouts and unemployed. Central Government facilitates and promotes the training
while registered Vocational Training Providers (VTP) under the Govt. and Private Sector
3
provide the training. Testing of skills is done by independent Assessing Bodies to ensure
impartiality.
The competency-based framework organizes qualifications into ten levels, with the
entry level being 1, and the highest level being 10. Each level of the NSQF is described by a
statement of learning outcomes in five domains, known as level descriptors. These five
domains are (1) Process, (2) Professional knowledge, (3) Professional skill, (4) Core skill, and
(5) Responsibility. The paradigm shift from learning focused on inputs to an
outcome/competency-based education would help in the Recognition of Prior Learning
(RPL), and simultaneously enable the alignment of the Indian qualifications with
international ones. Government funding is expected to be on a preferential basis for NSQF
compliant courses. The NSQF notification provides a Qualification Register, which is the
official national database of all qualifications aligned to NSQF levels. Through this Register,
learners can expect access to all NSQF compliant qualifications.
The Ministry has set up Mentor Councils to focus on courses under NCVT in various
sectors with representation from thought leaders among different stakeholders viz.,
industries, innovative entrepreneurs who have proved to be game-changers,
academic/professional institutions, and champion ITIs for each of the sectors. The Mentor
Council for each sector reviews curricula, admission criteria, course duration, and
requirement of trainers and assessment/evaluation systems for the sector on a continuous
basis and make recommendations regarding the same. Sector-wise Core Groups are formed
to plan and prepare the documentation for the competency-based curricula for the courses
under each sector.

5. GENERAL TRAINING PLAN, ASSESSMENT & CERTIFICATE
Assessment
The competency assessment for the Modular Employable Skills under the SDI scheme is
being done by the assessor of the independent Assessing Bodies (AB) which is not involved
in training delivery, to ensure an impartial assessment. The assessment process through
Assessing Bodies aims to test and certify the competency of the persons who seek
certification of their skills acquired informally or the persons who have been trained at the
registered VTPs. In the assessment process, identification of competency, ways to measure
the competency and deciding on the type of evidence that has to be collected are the
responsibility of the Assessing Bodies whereas administering the assessment and collecting
the evidence and reporting the results are the responsibility of the assessors.
Pass regulation:
Minimum passing marks for Practical is 60%
Minimum pass marks for theory is 40%
Certificate
Successful persons will be awarded certificates issued by National Council for Vocational
Training (NCVT).
