 2. BACKGROUND

1.1 Apprenticeship Training Scheme under Apprentice Act 1961

The Apprentices Act, 1961 was enacted with the objective of regulating the programme
of training of apprentices in the industry by utilizing the facilities available therein for
imparting on-the-job training. The Act makes it obligatory for employers in specified
industries to engage apprentices in designated trades to impart Apprenticeship Training
on the job in industry to school leavers and person having National Trade Certificate(ITI
pass-outs) issued by National Council for Vocational Training (NCVT) to develop skilled
manpower for the industry. There are four categories of apprentices namely; trade
apprentice, graduate, technician and technician (vocational) apprentices.
Qualifications and period of apprenticeship training of trade apprentices vary from
trade to trade. The apprenticeship training for trade apprentices consists of basic
training followed by practical training. At the end of the training, the apprentices are
required to appear in a trade test conducted by NCVT and those successful in the
trade tests are awarded the National Apprenticeship Certificate.
The period of apprenticeship training for graduate (engineers), technician (diploma holders
and technician (vocational) apprentices is one year. Certificates are awarded on completion
of training by the Department of Education, Ministry of Human Resource Development.

1.2 Changes in Industrial Scenario

Recently we have seen huge changes in the Indian industry. The Indian Industry
registered an impressive growth during the last decade and half. The number of
industries in India have increased manifold in the last fifteen years especially in services
and manufacturing sectors. It has been realized that India would become a prosperous
and a modern state by raising skill levels, including by engaging a larger proportion of
apprentices, will be critical to success; as will stronger collaboration between industry
and the trainees to ensure the supply of skilled workforce and drive development
through employment. Various initiatives to build up an adequate infrastructure for rapid
industrialization and improve the industrial scenario in India have been taken.

1.3 Reformation
nd
The Apprentices Act, 1961 has been amended and brought into effect from 22
December, 2014 to make it more responsive to industry and youth. Key
amendments are as given below:
• Prescription of number of apprentices to be engaged at establishment level
instead of trade-wise.
4
• Establishment can also engage apprentices in optional trades which are not
designated, with the discretion of entry level qualification and syllabus.

• Scope has been extended also to non-engineering occupations.

• Establishments have been permitted to outsource basic training in an institute of

their choice.

• The burden of compliance on industry has been reduced significantly.
