2.1 GENERAL
The Directorate General of Training (DGT) under Ministry of Skill Development &
Entrepreneurship offers a range of vocational training courses catering to the need of different
sectors of economy/ Labour market. The vocational training programmes are delivered under the
aegis of Directorate General of Training (DGT). Craftsman Training Scheme (CTS) with variants and
Apprenticeship Training Scheme (ATS) are two pioneer schemes of DGT for strengthening
vocational training.
Marine Engine Fitter trade under CTS is one of the popular courses delivered nationwide
through a network of ITIs. The course is of one year duration. It mainly consists of Domain area
and Core area. The Domain area (Trade Theory & Practical) imparts professional skills and
knowledge, while Core area (Employability Skills) imparts requisite core skill, knowledge and life
skills. After passing out of the training programme, the trainee is awarded National Trade
Certificate (NTC) by DGT which is recognized worldwide.
● Read & interpret technical parameters/documentation, plan and organize work processes,
identify necessary materials and tools;
● Perform task 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 maintenance work.
● Check the task/job for functioning, identify and rectify errors in task/job.
● Document the technical parameters related to the task undertaken.

Table below depicts the distribution of training hours across various course elements
during a period of one year: -
Every year 150 hours of mandatory OJT (On the Job Training) at nearby industry, wherever not
available then group project is mandatory.
Trainees of one-year or two-year trade can also opt for optional courses of up to 240 hours in
each year for 10th/ 12th class certificate along with ITI certification, or, add on short term courses.
The trainee will be tested for his skill, knowledge and attitude during the period of course
through formative assessment and at the end of the training programme through summative
assessment as notified by the DGT from time to time.
a) The Continuous Assessment (Internal) during the period of training will be done by Formative
assessment method by testing for assessment criteria listed against learning outcomes. The
training institute have to maintain individual trainee portfolio as detailed in assessment guideline.
The marks of internal assessment will be as per the formative assessment template provided on
www.bharatskills.gov.in
b) The final assessment will be in the form of summative assessment. The All India Trade Test for
awarding NTC will be conducted by Controller of examinations, DGT as per the guidelines. The
pattern and marking structure is being notified by DGT 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.

measures essential parts such as cylinder bore, crank pins, pistons etc., using cylinder gauge,
micrometer and other appropriate tools. Gets cylinders rebored, valve seats refaced and liners
filled if necessary. Fits and taps pistons in cylinders, de-carbonize cylinder head and grinds valves
using appropriate abrasives. Replaces or repairs worn out or damaged parts and assembles them,
doing supplementary tolling as necessary to ensure accuracy of fit. Installs assembled or repaired
engine in position, sets timings, fits accessories, adjusts tappets, carburettor, fan belt etc. and
connects it to propulsion drive. Starts engine, tunes it precisely and runs it at prescribed or set
standard making necessary adjustments. Observes different readings such as temperature, fuel
level, oil pressure etc. for optimum performance. Checks, adjusts and lubricates equipment
periodically and performs other operations to keep engine in good working order. May rebore
engine, reface valve seats, anneal pipes, braze or solder parts etc.
Assembler, Stationary Diesel Engine; assembles stationary diesel engine from finished
components, makes adjustments, sets alignments, clearances etc. and ensures stipulated
performance. Places diesel engine block on jig or other fixture using hoisting equipment. Fits or
assembles various parts to engine block such as crank shaft, cam shaft, main bearing, connecting
rods, timing gears pistons, fuel pump, atomiser, automatic timing mechanism, exhaust manifold
suspension, etc. using spanners, wrenches, screw drivers and other special tools and devices.
Collects various parts like nuts, bolts, washers etc. from nearby bins and fits or screws them to
cylinder head. Checks assembled units or parts at every stage for prescribed accuracy, alignment,
tolerance etc. using special tools. Records part number fitted or assembled to engine block and
notes factual details or position regarding clearances, adjustments etc. made. Assembles other sub-
assemblies like starter, alternator timing chain, heater assembly switch, radiator etc. Places
assembled engine at central places for engine test. May conduct engine test on dynamo meter and
note actual tuning conditions and make necessary adjustments. May overhaul and repair engines or
other components.
