ITI scores improve in latest grading

Of about 15,000 ITIS graded this year, 18.9 per cent scored more than 8 on a scale of 0-10 as against 12.4 per cent last year, when the new annual data-driven grading methodology started.

The Government ITI for Girls, Nellore (Andhra Pradesh), and the Government Industrial Training Institute, Barbil (Odisha), have scored the highest. The two have a grade of 9.6, the latest round of grading prepared for the academic year 2024-25 shows.

This comes after the FY25 Budget announced a scheme to skill two million youths over the next five years, with 1,000 ITIS to be upgraded in hub-and-spoke arrangements focused on outcomes.

According to a notification by the ministry, 14,999 ITIS, private and government, were graded across the country compared to 14,951 last year. There was no grade for 122 ITIS because sufficient data was not there on account of these being new.
