time to time. The employability skills will be tested in the first two semesters 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 at the end of each semester 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

The minimum pass percentage for practical is 60% & minimum pass percentage of
theory subjects is 40%. For the purposes of determining the overall result, 25% weightage is
applied to the result of each semester examination.

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 semester

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