1. Centres of Excellence Department of Technical Education & Industrial Training Punjab

2. Extract of the Budget Speech 2004-05 I am concerned about the quality of technical education in the country. Lest I be misunderstood, I am not referring to the IITs but to the ITIs. ITIs are the training ground for skilled manpower. The skills imparted by ITIs must keep pace with the technological demands of industry and the expanding universe of knowledge. Contd.

3. Extract of the Budget Speech 2004-05 There is only one benchmark for our technicians – and that is the world standard. In order to produce technicians of world standard, Government proposes to launch a programme in the Central sector to upgrade 500 ITIs over the next 5 years at the rate of 100 ITIs a year. Appropriate infrastructure and equipment will be provided, the syllabi will be upgraded and new trades will be introduced. This is an area where I welcome Chambers of Commerce and Industry to join hands with the Government and create a Public-Private Partnership model for designing and implementing the scheme. The selection of the ITIs will be done in consultation with the State Governments”.

6. Criteria of selection of ITI • The identification of ITIs within a State/UT is to be done by the State/UT Government, keeping in view the following guidelines • A cluster of specific category of industry like Automobile, Electronics, Chemical, Information Technology etc should preferably be available in the surrounding areas of the selected ITIs • Academic, administrative, financial and management autonomy will have to be provided to the selected ITIs for upgradation as Centres of Excellence. Contd.

7. Criteria of selection of ITI • The selected ITI should have constituted/ constitute Institute Management Committees in order to create a public-private partnership model for implementing the scheme. • The selected ITI should have proper surroundings, sufficient area for landscaping, well constructed buildings with adequate space for additions/alterations and other infrastructural facilities. The institute should be well connected by road / railway station.

8. Objective • Main objective is to produce multi skilled workforce ofworld standard by Introducing new multi-skill modular courses as per needs of Industry • Improving physical infrastructure facilities like building, equipment etc, • Adopting new training technology with close involvement of industry. • Empowering these Centres by providing sufficient autonomy. • Building up partnership with nearby industry setting up Institute Management Committee(IMC).

9. Benefits • Multi entry & multi exit system for trainees. • The highlights of the scheme are introduction of multiskilling courses (BBBT- Broad Based Basic Training ) of one year duration, followed by advanced and specialized modular coursessubsequently by adopting industry wise cluster approach, multi entry and multi exit provisions, and PPP in the form of Institute Managing Committees (IMCs) to ensure greater & active involvement of industry in all aspects of training

10. What is expected from Industry • If we consider skilled manpower as one of the raw material for the industry, then ITIs are producing the said raw material. In case the raw material is not of the required standard, then the industry will face difficulty in producing quality goods and this will affect their market. • Industry should therefore, come forward in big way and actively participate in the skill development activities. • Industry to participate actively right from the identification of training areas to evaluation of trainees.
