GKDITR consisting of Industrial training Centre and Tooling Centre is one of the Trust Institutions solely to provide employable skills to the trainees for easy transition into industries and making them work fit. The training opportunities are extended to unemployed youths i.e., engineering Graduates, Diploma holders and 10th & 12th standard Boys and Girls and to the Industrial employees. The Institute has 20,000 plus sq.ft. of training space housing state-of-the-art class rooms, seminar hall, computer room, low cost automation laboratory, fitting shop metrology lab along with rang of conventional and CNC machines. A most modern tool room, located within the campus further supports the training activates. Objective GKDITR of Today’s industry commands a wide and extensive, not to mention a thorough knowledge in the technical field. And only a professional, who is well versed in his/her area of expertise, can do justice and bring perfection to the job. In short, a skilled and well – trained professional can add significantly to productivity factors. As a HRD person, we are sure you can see the potential of such a work-force. The training and educational objectives are simple and clear. • To build employable skills for an easy transition into the industry • To have a wholistic approach in development of skill, knowledge and attitudes in a systematic manner • To give adequate exposure in modern management systems and practices • To make available trained youth for the needs of the industry Vision To be a globally respected training centre that develops bestof-breed in industrial resources with best-in-class skills and strong value system. Mission To achieve our objectives in an environment of creativity, growth and commitment towards trainees, as well as towards professional ethics, Indian ethos and society at large. The Tata Institute of Social Sciences (TISS) is a premier institute of Social Work in India. It was established in 1936 and was recognized as deemed University by the University Grants Commission (UGC) of India in the year 1964. The vision of the institute is to be an institution of excellence in higher education that continually responds to the changing social realities through the development and application of knowledge, towards creating a people-centred and ecologically sustainable society that promotes and protects the dignity, equality, social justice and human rights for all, with special emphasis on marginalished and vulnerable groups. In December 2011, Tata Institute of Social Sciences set up the School of Vocational Education (SVE). It aims to provide immediate and definite interventions to improve the lives of the disadvantaged and marginalished youth, especially those who are excluded by the formal school education system, through appropriate vocational training programmes. The training program are inclusive in nature and structured in a way to facilitate vertical movement of the organized and unorganized labor. It facilitiates the participation creating an ecosystem that would bring back the dignity of labor for blue collar streams of work and create sustainable sources of income for the marginalished youth in the country. Concept The approach adopted by TISS-SVE is called the Work Integrated Training programme (WITP). This Vocational Educational Programme is being implemented for the first time in India with a focus on job specific skills rather than providing only a broad based education. The aim is to enable the students to learn the skill by engaging in on-the-job training at real shop floor of the industry/company along with classroom theoretical training. Though this ‘Earn while you Learn’ approach model, the trainee may also earn a modest stipend during on-the-job duration of the course. Although, this is not mandatory for any institution, TISSSVE strongly encourages the training partners to adopt this practice. TISS-SVE Model of Vocational Education is a work integrated training which include on-the-job training (practical) for 4 to 5 days a week and 1 day of theory training. The courses also include generic models for overall development of the candidate. 1. Bachelors of Vocational Education Under the Work integrated Training Programme, TIS-SVE offers courses beginning with ‘Diploma course’ and leading to ‘Bachelor of Vocational Degree’ (B.Voc). Every individual level/year is a standalone certification recognized and awarded by TISS as a deemed university. The target group for such courses is largely marginalized youth who are seeking nonformal educational methods to enhance earning capabilities and thereby improve livelihood conditions. It follows the progression and eligibility as elaborated in the chart below. Student Eligibility Criteria for B.Voc.

This initiative enables those who have dropped out of formal education systems to pursue education in the vocational streams. 2. It helps organizations upgrade the skills of its blue collar workforce by accrediting them with a recognized degree/diploma for vocational skills they already possess. This would lead to higher retention, efficiency and productivity of workforce. 3. It helps organizations upgrade the skills of its blue collar workforce and standardize the same. Employees enrolled as students have to undergro only one day of theoretical training per week. 4. Practical training to be impacted by skill knowledge partners is based on specifically defined learning outcomes. 5. Third party examination & Certification (by TISS-SVE) brings in the required rigour and promotes higher standards. 6. Industries & organizations can sponsor students as part of their CSR activities. 7. All traning can be conducted in vernacular language. 8. This initiative brings course of a reputed Institute like TISS to various locations across the length and breadth of the country.
