AICET for CITS study guide

CITS (Craft Instructor Training Scheme) is the instructor-training strand of the Indian vocational training system run under the Directorate General of Training (DGT), Ministry of Skill Development and Entrepreneurship. The DGT describes itself as the apex organisation for developing and coordinating vocational training programmes at national level, including training of instructors, while day-to-day administration of Industrial Training Institutes rests with State Governments or Union Territory administrations. Candidates for a CITS entrance test are typically ITI/CTS pass-outs or working craft instructors who want to move into instructor roles or upgrade their qualifications; note that the DGT also runs a CITS (RPL) All India Trade Test for Craft Instructors, whose September 2026 supplementary schedule appeared in the DGT examination corner. Entrance preparation is usually built around four areas: trade theory, trade practical, workshop calculation and science, and engineering drawing. The AICET for CITS study guide has 4 sections and about 1,140 words.
