TRAINING THROUGH
DISTANCE LEARNING TECHNOLOGY
e-Kranti for Vocational Training
Ministry of Labour & Employment Directorate General of Employment & Training (DGET)
Background
India faces the problem of low productivity in the manufacturing
sector due to lack of skill training among shop floor workers. As per
current statistics, only 10% of India’s workforce has any vocational
training, out of which only one-fourth (or 2.5% of workforce) has
any formal technical education. Even in this segment, certificate
level trained manpower is just above 50% which indicates shortage
of skilled shop floor workers.
Providing the current industry-relevant skill training to students
requires regularly updated syllabus and trainers who are trained in
the latest syllabus. However, there is a severe shortage of both
trainers and the capacity to train the trainers. Use of distance
learning technology to train trainers was conceived as a solution to
overcome the capacity constraints.
Ministry of Labour & Employment is setting up distance learning
infrastructure to provide quality training to both students and
trainers.
Objectives
Accelerate the manpower development by training the trainers
with latest changes in curriculum through technology.
Have a cost effective program to train large number of trainers
and students without compromising on quality.
Satisfy the educational needs of trainers and students in
scattered communities covering large geographical areas of the
country.
Motivate trainers and students by increasing their interaction
with industry personnel and teachers from premier institutes.
The primary objective of Distance Learning Programs is
to increase training capacity with the help of technology.
Revamping of Syllabus
Ministry of Labour and Employment constituted Mentor Councils
in January 2014 to revamp courses to be run in 25 sectors. The
Mentor Councils have representatives from thought leaders among
various stakeholders viz. one of the top ten industries in the sector,
innovative entrepreneurswho have proved to be game-changers,
academic/professional institutions, champion ITIs for each of the
sectors and experts in delivering education and training through
modern methods like through use of IT, distance education etc.
First Mentor Council Meeting at New Delhi
11 sectors were identified as priority sectors and internal core
groups were created to tap the expertise of officers in the various
institutions of DGET. A review of curriculum, admission criteria,
course duration etc. was done and a revised curriculum was
recommended. To train the ITI trainers with the additional courses
in the revised curriculum, it was proposed to use distance learning
through technology.
Technology Used
Two way audio/video/data communication is required for effective
training. Ministry of Labour and Employment evaluated the
available technologies for distance learning and selected
communication over internet through AVIEW (Free for use
software developed by Amrita University under NMEICT).
Hub & Spoke Model
AVIEW technology is used extensively for distance learning by
leading educational institutions such as IIT Bombay and IIT
Kharagpur. A hub and spoke model is used to train trainers. The
communication between hub and spoke is done over the internet
through AVIEW.
Hub: The teacher end which contains studio
Spoke: The student end which is the remote center
National Coverage
10 Central Field Institutions of DGET were chosen as hubs and 194
government ITIs were chosen as spokes to ensurecountrywide
coverage.

The spokes were chosen based on the number of ITI students in the
state and the area of the state. Reliable internet connectivity by
BSNL is provided to all the spokes. The hubs have joined the
prestigious NKN (National Knowledge Network) which is a pan-
India knowledge network through robust and reliable connectivity.
Planning & Execution
Advisory Committee
An Advisory Committee for Distance Learning was constituted to
discuss various aspects of providing training using distance
learning technology and takes decisions for conducting and
improving programs. The committee has representatives from
States, Central Field Institutions, NIMI, Trade Testing Cell and
DGET Mentors as members and is chaired by DDG (AT).
To streamline distance learning related activities, a few key people
were nominated. Roles and responsibilities were assigned to them
and training (if, required) was provided.
Nodal Officer for State
One nodal officer was nominated by each state to improve the
communication between DGET and the State.
Nodal Officer for Hub and Spoke Nodal officers were nominated at each hub and spoke to execute
the distance learning programs
Technical Coordinator for Hub andSpoke
Two technical coordinators were nominated at each hub and spoke
to handle and operate the equipment.
Kick Starting Distance Learning Programs
The first meeting on Distance Learning was held during March
2014. Thereafter, the process of evaluation of available
technologies, selection of hub and spoke locations, purchase of
equipment etc. started. As these activities required considerable
time, it was decided to start the providing training through hired
hubs and spokes and gradually move to own hubs and own spokes.
Mr. Alok Kumar (DG/JS) addressing the participants of the first distance learning
program – 18th June 2014 (http://youtu.be/BubfS6sTMCc)
The hubs of 4 NITTTRs at Bhopal, Chandigarh, Chennai and Kolkata
along with their spokes were hired for the pilot program (June
2014). The pilot program was an excellent learning opportunity for
the DGET staff from the experience of NITTTR hubs and spokes.
All the spokes are functional currently and the hubs are expected to
start working by the end of January 2015. The programs from
November 2014 onwards have used own spokes and hired hubs. It
is expected that the complete distance learning infrastructure of
the Ministry of Labour and Employment will be ready for use by
March 2015.

Achievements
10,000+ Trainers Trained
2-4 day programs were held on most months using the four
NITTTRs and spokes. States and spokes were chosen depending on
the number of ITI trainers (both government and private) available
in the vicinity. In total, 10,402 ITI trainers were trained covering
23 states and union territories through distance learning programs
since June 2014.
Guest Speakers from Industry, Academia and DGET
Quality speakers were chosen by DGET mentors for various trades.
Speakers from industry and academia were encouraged to provide
current industry relevant training.
