1. 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

The Apprentices Act, 1961 has been amended and brought into effect from 22 nd
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.

 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.

3. JOB ROLE

It is generally observed that institutionally trained youth have not produced desired
result because training imparted in institutions alone is not enough for acquisition of skills but
needs to be supplemented by training in the actual world of work.

Electric Power is the main source of our daily life activity and use of Electric Power is
increasing everyday in the world. Electricity is being generated through various sources i.e.
thermal, hydro, nuclear, solar etc. but its transmission, distribution and utilization is almost
everywhere in the world. Consequently, trained man power is very much required at every level
i.e. generation, transmission, distribution and utilization.

Whole electrical network is increasing every moment and making network more
complex. To operate the complex network of Generation-Transmission-Distribution-Utilization,
trained skilled man power is very much needed. Institutional study and theory is the base of
understanding of this subject matter but on job training is necessary to make a person
employable and capable on the work front.

In view of the above, to develop such type of skilled manpower; to meet the demand of
the time and industry, person should be trained for the actual need i.e. he should be able to
know the all major HT, LT equipments like motor, generator, substations, transmission through
over head lines and underground cable. Fault finding of these machines, repairing and
maintenance. DC machines are also a part of our industries and application, operation and
repairing of those DC machine is also a part our technical activity. Use of Solar Energy is the
future and skilled man power in this area will be in demand.
A large number of skilled workers coming out of technical institutes do not possess the
required skills and are not readily employable. The industries have to spend time and money on
their training. It has been observed that most of the existing Industrial Training Institutes run by
the government and private sector do not have on the job training facilities.

It is therefore needed to interact with the industry to provide on the job training to the
Semi skilled workers and also make changes in the curriculum. So to supply the skilled
manpower, the Apprenticeship Training approach with the revised, industrial friendly
curriculum is required.
