Skilling Process
Training
Training is one of the fundamental elements of the skill development process. The training conducted by MSMEPCI can be segregated into three different segments.
Training of Trainees
The first and foremost segment is the training of trainees – these are the candidates aspiring to be trained in specific skills.
These trainings are carried out by the various training partners affiliated to MSMEPCI. There are different programs under different crafts on which aspiring candidates can pursue trainings on.
MSMEPCI provides training from scratch in a given job role.
On the other hand MSMEPCI also provides training in which the trainees have prior knowledge on the job role and are just trained on additional requirements such as quality aspects.
Training of Trainers (TOT)
The trainers responsible to train the trainees must be knowledgeable and be equipped with skills to deliver training. They must be experts in their own subjects. The efficiency of the trainers would reflect the proficiency of the training they provide to the candidates in the specific skills. Therefore, MSMEPCI conducts training for trainers to train and guide the trainers to build their capacities to deliver training.
Training of Assessors (TOA)
Assessment is an indispensible process in regards to the skilling process. It is only through assessment that the quality of training and the trainees could be measured. Therefore, it is essential to assure the quality of assessment. With the purpose of providing a qualitative assessment, MSMEPCI conducts training for assessors at different times of the years. In these trainings the assessors are trained on the standards of assessment and its various criteria.
Assessment
Proper assessment of the trainees is one of the most important parts of the skill development process. The quality of assessment would define the standard of the trained trainees. For that matter, MSMEPCI will also do assesment of the trainees. MSMEPCI have assesors who assess the trainees on the set standards of MSMEPCI. In order to guide and assist the assessors, MSMEPCI conducts Training of Assessors (TOA) .
Certification
Certification is the final process of the skilling process. After the completion of training, the trainees are assessed by certified assessors of MSMEPCI. On successfully completing the training and assessment, depending on the grades/marks obtained in the assessments, the trainees are certified. The certification process includes the grading of trainees with respect to the marks/grades earned in the evaluation procedure. Subsequently, the trainees are offered their certificates.
