Interestingly the additional cost of the course would be born by AICTE itself.

Dr. Anshu Kataria, President, Punjab Unaided Colleges Association (PUCA) while welcoming this initiative taken by AICTE said that the Technical Institutes are viable vehicle for conducting such skill training sessions. The step would also strengthen “Make in India”, “Digital India”, “Startup India” and other such projects involved to develop around 109 million skilled persons by 2022.

Kataria further said that on the one hand such new schemes would help students to get skill development education and at the same time the unutilized infrastructure of the colleges could also be brought under proper utilization.

Kataria further added that on the same pattern State should also set up a committee to access the total surplus infrastructure available in the technical institutes of the Punjab wherein such other courses etc can be started.

It is to be mentioned that the last date for the submission of online application on AICTE portal is 18th April under which all eligible institutions will have to offer skills training for 250 hours to a batch of 100 students based on National Occupational Standards (NOS) in engineering skills.
