Odisha CHSE +2 Vocational PDFM (RMPDFM) study plan

Odisha CHSE +2 Vocational PDFM (RMPDFM) · Give each week a clear focus.

8 weeks · About 7 hours per week

Week 1

Trade Theory and Fundamentals of the Vocational Trade (PDFM/RMPDFM) & Applied Science and Mathematics relevant to the Trade

  • Define and differentiate PDFM and RMPDFM trade scope, listing at least 15 core processes, machines, and job types in your own words

  • Sketch the full production flow from raw material intake to finished product for two representative jobs and label every stage

  • Re-derive the key applied-science relationships used in the trade (unit conversion, area/volume, force, pressure, speed and feed ratios) and solve 20 numerical problems with at least 90% accuracy

  • Build a personal glossary of 60 trade terms with one-line definitions and SI units where applicable

  • List five open questions from your notes and flag them for resolution in week 2

Your checkpoint

A handwritten or typed 6-page trade fundamentals summary containing the process flow diagrams, the 20 solved numericals, and the 60-term glossary

Week 2

Trade Theory and Fundamentals of the Vocational Trade (PDFM/RMPDFM) & Materials, Tools, Equipment and Safety Practices

  • Explain the working principle, main parts, and typical applications of each major machine or tool group in the trade, one paragraph each

  • Match 30 common tools and equipment to their correct use, and identify five common misuse cases and their consequences

  • Classify trade materials by composition, properties, and typical application, producing a comparison table of at least 12 materials

  • Draft a tool-room inventory checklist covering hand tools, measuring instruments, and consumables with expected condition standards

  • State the correct procedure for pre-use inspection of at least eight tools or equipment items

Your checkpoint

A 10-row material comparison table plus a one-page pre-use inspection checklist covering eight tools, self-checked against your week 1 glossary

Week 3

Trade Practical Skills and Workshop/Lab Procedures & Materials, Tools, Equipment and Safety Practices

  • Sequence the steps of the four most common practical jobs in the trade and write each as a numbered work procedure with hold points

  • Identify the safety hazards in each of those four procedures and state the control measure for each hazard

  • Demonstrate correct donning, use, and removal of PPE for at least three job scenarios and record the sequence

  • Describe first-response actions for five trade-specific accident types (cuts, burns, electric shock, chemical contact, fire)

  • List the housekeeping and waste-segregation steps required at the end of a shift

Your checkpoint

Four written job procedure sheets, each with a hazard-control column and an end-of-shift housekeeping section, reviewed for completeness

Week 4

Measurement, Inspection, Quality Control and Standards & Engineering Drawing, Schematics and Technical Documentation

  • Select the correct measuring instrument for 15 given measurement tasks and justify each choice by least count and range

  • Read and record measurements from instrument descriptions (vernier, micrometer, dial gauge, steel rule) with 10 practice readings each and zero reading errors

  • Interpret a dimensioned drawing by extracting all dimensions, tolerances, and surface-finish callouts into a flat list

  • Produce a neat freehand or instrument-drawn sketch of one trade component with correct dimensioning, title block, and projection

  • Explain the purpose of tolerance, allowance, and fit, and classify five given fits as clearance, interference, or transition

Your checkpoint

A measurement log of 40 practice readings with instrument justification, plus one fully dimensioned component drawing with title block

Week 5

Measurement, Inspection, Quality Control and Standards & Engineering Drawing, Schematics and Technical Documentation

  • Apply a sampling inspection routine to a batch of 50 practice parts and record accept/reject decisions against stated limits

  • Calculate basic quality metrics (defect rate, percentage rejected, simple control-chart limits) from your inspection data

  • Read and explain the symbols and callouts on two schematic or layout drawings relevant to the trade

  • Write a short inspection report that states method, instrument, standard referenced, results, and conclusion

  • Identify which national or international standard applies to three given product characteristics and state why

Your checkpoint

A completed inspection report on 50 practice parts including the defect-rate calculation and a labelled sketch of one nonconforming feature

Week 6

Trade Practical Skills and Workshop/Lab Procedures & Applied Science and Mathematics relevant to the Trade

  • Complete two integrated practice jobs end to end, timing each stage and noting where your procedure deviated from the written sheet

  • Recalculate the process parameters (speed, feed, depth, mixture ratio, or load as applicable) for those jobs from first principles and compare with your actual values

  • Solve 25 applied mathematics problems drawn from trade situations, showing every step

  • Diagnose three common faults in the trade, stating symptom, probable cause, check, and remedy

  • Update your week 3 procedure sheets with corrections found during practice

Your checkpoint

Two completed practice jobs with a stage-timing sheet, a parameter calculation sheet, and revised procedure documents

Week 7

Entrepreneurship, Employability Skills and Communication & Computer/IT Applications and Digital Skills in the Trade & Environmental Awareness, Occupational Health and Workplace Ethics

  • Draft a one-page business concept for a small enterprise in this trade covering service offered, customer, pricing basis, and startup needs

  • Prepare a simple cost sheet for one job, separating material, labour, overhead, and margin, and compute break-even output

  • Produce a typed technical document (report or quotation) using a word processor with a table, headings, and correct file naming

  • Build a spreadsheet that records inspection or job data and returns summary statistics using formulas

  • Write a workplace-conduct and environmental-responsibility checklist of 12 items covering waste, energy, emissions, and ethics

Your checkpoint

A digital portfolio folder containing the business concept, cost sheet with break-even figure, one formatted document, and one working spreadsheet

Week 8

Trade Theory and Fundamentals of the Vocational Trade (PDFM/RMPDFM) & Trade Practical Skills and Workshop/Lab Procedures & Measurement, Inspection, Quality Control and Standards

  • Consolidate all prior deliverables into an indexed revision file organized by the nine exam domains

  • Answer 100 mixed practice questions across the heaviest domains under timed conditions and log every wrong answer with the correct reasoning

  • Re-teach the five weakest topics aloud or in writing from memory, then verify against your notes

  • Re-perform one measurement and one inspection task cold, without notes, to confirm retention
