Training Centers
Training bodies are the bodies which are on-boarded by a recognized Awarding Body through affiliation or any such other manner as may be prescribed by NCVET to impart quality training in NSQF aligned and approved qualification/s. With a view to infuse quality assurance across the entire training process, it is imperative to have a robust system of Training Partners (TPs) and Training Centers (TCs) that are fit for the purpose and are equipped to deliver quality training.
One of the major functions of NCVET includes indirect regulation of TPs and TCs through Awarding Bodies. Keeping the spirit of the delegated regulation, NCVET has mandated ABs to oversee the functioning, quality and performance of its training entities through an affiliation/ accreditation process. However, broad parameters like availability of learning resources, trainers, infrastructure, industry engagement, assessment, placements etc. have been prescribed by NCVET which should necessarily be covered in the affiliation norms of an AB and reflect in the agreement signed with training entities.
NCVET has empowered Awarding to enter into an agreement with their empanelled/ affiliated TPs/ TCs to offer trainings in NSQC approved qualifications.
