Training
Institutes (ATIs) at various locations of the country at a Total Project Cost
of over 200 Crores. This is the pilot phase of a scheme of the Directorate
under its Craft Instructor Training Scheme (CITS), to be implemented in PPP
mode, with the objective training of 9200 Vocational Instructors to begin with.
This
effort is a part of ‘Make in India’ program which aims to transform India into
a best-in-class manufacturing hub and it places a strong emphasis on skill
development. The Hon’ble Prime Minister, in a recent speech, has also weighed
on the need to focus on Skill, Scale and Speed to make India capable of
competing on the global scale. Referring to the requirement of skilled trainers
in the country, he mentioned that good teachers are one of the biggest needs of
the society.
To
address this need for vocational trainers, the DGE&T has decided to setup
27 Advanced Training Institutes (ATIs) in all for training of trainers. With a
clear impetus on private participation to induce efficiency and innovation, the
DGE&T has decided to explore Public-Private Partnerships as a model for
developing these institutes.
DGE&T
is an apex organization for development and coordination of the vocational
training in India.
The
pre qualification process for bidders to set up the first 12 institutes in the
first phase is to begin soon.
