propagating vocational training.
The Weaving Technician trade under CTS is one of the popular newly designed courses
delivered nationwide through a network of ITIs. The course is of two years duration. It mainly
consists of Domain area and Core area. The Domain area (Trade Theory & Practical) imparts
professional skills and knowledge, while Core area (Workshop Calculation Science, Engineering
Drawing and Employability Skills) impart requisite core skill, knowledge and life skills. After
passing out the training program, the trainee is awarded National Trade Certificate (NTC) by
NCVT which is recognized worldwide.
Trainee broadly needs to demonstrate that they are able to:
 Read & interpret technical parameters/documentation, plan and organize work

processes, identify necessary materials and tools;
 Perform tasks with due consideration to safety rules, accident prevention regulations
and environmental protection stipulations;
 Apply professional knowledge, core skills & employability skills while performing the job,
and repair & maintenance work.
 Check the job with circuit diagrams/components as per drawing for functioning,
diagnose and rectify faults in the components/module.
 Document the technical parameters in tabulation sheet related to the task undertaken.
2.2 CAREER PROGRESSION PATHWAYS:

time to time. The employability skills will be tested in the first year itself.
a) The Internal Assessment during the period of training will be done by Formative Assessment
Method by testing for assessment criteria listed against learning outcomes. The training
institute has to maintain an individual trainee portfolio as detailed in assessment guideline. The
marks of internal assessment will be as per the template (Annexure – II).
b) The final assessment will be in the form of summative assessment method. The All India
Trade Test for awarding NTC will be conducted by NCVT as per the guideline of Government of
India. The pattern and marking structure is being notified by Govt. of India from time to time.
The learning outcome and assessment criteria will be the basis for setting question papers for
final assessment. The examiner during final examination will also check the individual
trainee’s profile as detailed in assessment guideline before giving marks for practical
examination.
2.4.1 PASS REGULATION
For the purposes of determining the overall result, weightage of 100% is applied for six
months and one year duration courses and 50% weightage is applied to each examination for
two years courses. The minimum pass percent for Practical is 60% & minimum pass percent for
Theory subjects is 33%.

Weaving Technician
2.4.2 ASSESSMENT GUIDELINE
Appropriate arrangements should be made to ensure that there will be no artificial

barriers to assessment. The nature of special needs should be taken into account while
undertaking the assessment. Due consideration should be given while assessing for teamwork,
avoidance/reduction of scrap/wastage and disposal of scrap/waste as per procedure,
behavioral attitude, sensitivity to the environment and regularity in training. The sensitivity
towards OSHE and self-learning attitude are to be considered while assessing competency.
Assessment will be evidence based comprising the following:
 Job carried out in labs/workshop

 Record book/ daily diary
 Answer sheet of assessment
 Viva-voce
 Progress chart
 Attendance and punctuality
 Assignment
 Project work
Evidences of internal assessments are to be preserved until forthcoming examination

for audit and verification by examining body. The following marking pattern to be adopted
while assessing:

Note: -
1. Instructor may design their own projects and also inputs from local industry may be
taken for designing such new projects.
2. The project should broadly cover maximum skills in the particular trade and must involve
some problem solving skill. Emphasis should be on Teamwork: Knowing the power of
synergy/ collaboration, work to be assigned in a group (Group of at least 4 trainees). The
group should demonstrate Planning, Execution, Contribution and Application of
Learning. They need to submit a Project report after completion.

taken for designing such new projects.
2. The project should broadly cover maximum skills in the particular trade and must involve
some problem solving skill. Emphasis should be on Teamwork: Knowing the power of
synergy/ collaboration, work to be assigned in a group (Group of at least 4 trainees). The
group should demonstrate Planning, Execution, Contribution and Application of
Learning. They need to submit a Project report after completion.
3. If the instructor feels that for execution of specific project more time is required then he
may plan accordingly in appropriate time during the execution of normal trade practical.
