TEACHER’S/ TRAINER’S QUALIFICATIONS:

Qualification and other requirements for appointment of teachers/trainers for teaching this subject, on
contractual basis should be decided by the State/ UT. The suggestive qualifications and minimum
competencies for the teacher should be as follows:

also be acceptable.

Teachers/Trainers form the backbone of Skill (Vocational) Education being imparted as an integral
part of Rashtriya Madhyamik Shiksha Abhiyan (RMSA). They are directly involved in teaching of Skill
(vocational) subjects and also serve as a link between the industry and the schools for arranging
industry visits, On-the-Job Training (OJT) and placement.
These guidelines have been prepared with an aim to help and guide the States in engaging quality
Teachers/Trainers in the schools. Various parameters that need to be looked into while engaging the
Vocational Teachers/Trainers are mode and procedure of selection of Teachers/ Trainers,
Educational Qualifications, Industry Experience, and Certification/ Accreditation.
The State may engage Teachers/Trainers in schools approved under the component of scheme of
Vocationalisation of Secondary and Higher Secondary Education under RMSA in following ways:
(i) Directly as per the prescribed qualifications and industry experience suggested by the PSS
Central Institute of Vocational Education (PSSCIVE), NCERT or the respective Sector Skill
Council (SSC).
OR
(ii) Through accredited Vocational Training Providers accredited under the National Quality
Assurance Framework (NQAF*) approved by the National Skill Qualification Committee on
21.07.2016. If the State is engaging Vocational Teachers/Trainers through the Vocational
Training Provider (VTP), it should ensure that VTP should have been accredited at NQAF Level
2 or higher.

417- Artificial Intelligence Class X- 2025-2026 Page 11 of 13


* The National Quality Assurance Framework (NQAF) provides the benchmarks or
quality criteria which the different organizations involved in education and training
must meet in order to be accredited by competent bodies to provide government-
funded education and training/skills activities. This is applicable to all organizations
offering NSQF-compliant qualifications.

The educational qualifications required for being a Teacher/Trainer for a particular job role are clearly
mentioned in the curriculum for the particular NSQF compliant job role. The State should ensure that
teachers/ trainers deployed in the schools have relevant technical competencies for the NSQF
qualification being delivered. Teachers/Trainers preferably should be certified by the concerned
Sector Skill Council for the particular Qualification Pack/Job role which he will be teaching. Copies of
relevant certificates and/or record of experience of the teacher/trainer in the industry should be kept
as record.
To ensure the quality of the Teachers/Trainers, the State should ensure that a standardized procedure
for selection of (Vocational) Teachers/Trainers is followed. The selection procedure should consist of
the following:
(i) Written test for the technical/domain specific knowledge related to the sector;
(ii) Interview for assessing the knowledge, interests and aptitude of trainer through a panel of
experts from the field and state representatives; and
(iii) Practical test/mock test in classroom/workshop/laboratory.

In case of appointment through VTPs, the selection may be done based on the above procedure by
a committee having representatives of both the State Government and the VTP.
The State should ensure that the Teachers/ Trainers who are recruited should undergo induction
training of 20 days for understanding the scheme, NSQF framework and Vocational Pedagogy before
being deployed in the schools.

The State should ensure that the existing trainers undergo in-service training of 5 days every year to
make them aware of the relevant and new techniques/approaches in their sector and understand the
latest trends and policy reforms in vocational education.
The Headmaster/Principal of the school where the scheme is being implemented should facilitate and
ensure that the (Vocational) Teachers/Trainers:

● Prepare session plans and deliver sessions which have a clear and relevant purpose, and
which engage the students;
● Deliver education and training activities to students, based on the curriculum to achieve the
learning outcomes;
● Make effective use of learning aids and ICT tools during the classroom sessions;
● Engage students in learning activities, which include a mix of different methodologies, such as
project-based work, teamwork, practical and simulation-based learning experiences;
● Work with the institution’s management to organise skill demonstrations, site visits, on-job
trainings, and presentations for students in cooperation with industry, enterprises and other
workplaces;
● Identify the weaknesses of students and assist them in up-gradation of competency;
● Cater to different learning styles and level of ability of students;
● Assess the learning needs and abilities, when working with students with different abilities
● Identify any additional support the student may need and help to make special arrangements
for that support;
● Provide placement assistance
417- Artificial Intelligence Class X- 2025-2026 Page 12 of 13
Assessment and evaluation of (Vocational) Teachers/Trainers is very critical for making them aware
of their performance and for suggesting corrective actions. The States/UTs should ensure that the
performance of the (Vocational) Teachers/Trainers is appraised annually. Performance based
appraisal in relation to certain pre-established criteria and objectives should be done periodically to
ensure the quality of the (Vocational) Teachers/Trainers.
Following parameters may be considered during the appraisal process:
● Participation in guidance and counseling activities conducted at Institutional, District and State
level;
● Adoption of innovative teaching and training methods;
● Improvement in result of vocational students of Class X or Class XII;
● Continuous up-gradation of knowledge and skills related to the vocational pedagogy,
communication skills and vocational subject;
● Membership of professional society at District, State, Regional, National and International
level;
● Development of teaching-learning materials in the subject area;
● Efforts made in developing linkages with the Industry/Establishments;
● Efforts made towards involving the local community in Vocational Education
● Publication of papers in National and International Journals;
● Organisation of activities for promotion of vocational subjects;
● Involvement in placement of students/student support services.
