Core Subjects & Modules

 

The curriculum is usually divided into theoretical and practical components across four main areas:

Subject AreaKey Topics Covered
1. Trade Theory & Professional Knowledge* Safety: Workshop safety, personal protective equipment (PPE), fire safety, first aid, and good housekeeping (e.g., 5S concept).
 * Basic Fitting: Definition, importance, metals (ferrous and non-ferrous), their properties (hardness, malleability, ductility), and heat treatment basics.
 * Measuring Instruments: Steel rule, Vernier Caliper, Micrometer, Vernier Bevel Protractor, gauges, and precision measurement techniques.
 * Cutting Tools: Hacksaws, files (types, cuts, grades), chisels, drills, taps, and dies.
 * Lathe Work: Introduction to the lathe machine, basic operations like turning, facing, drilling, and threading.
 * Joining Methods: Riveting, soldering, brazing, and basic arc and gas welding techniques.
 * Pipe Fitting: Types of pipes, pipe joints, pipe bending, and fittings.
 * Maintenance: Lubrication, bearings, gears, and basic machine maintenance.
2. Trade Practical (Professional Skills)* Bench Work: Marking, chipping, sawing, filing (flat, square, parallel), scraping, and surface finishing.
 * Drilling & Threading: Drilling, reaming, counter-boring, counter-sinking, tapping (internal threads), and dieing (external threads).
 * Assembly: Fitting and assembling parts to close tolerances, making joints, and fastening using nuts, bolts, keys, and cotters.
 * Sheet Metal Work: Working with sheet metal, making various joints, and bending.
 * Precision Exercises: Working to high accuracy, and inspection using precision instruments.
3. Workshop Calculation & Science* Mathematics: Units (Metric/Imperial), fractions, decimals, percentage, ratio, proportion, algebra, geometry (area and volume).
 * Basic Physics: Mass, weight, density, speed, velocity, work, power, energy, heat, and temperature.
4. Engineering Drawing* Drawing Basics: Lines, lettering, dimensioning, and drawing sheet layout.
 * Projection: Orthographic projection (1st and 3rd angle), and isometric projection.
 * Geometrical Constructions: Drawing polygons and other shapes.
 * Fitter Tools: Drawing and sketching the view of common tools and simple machine parts.
5. Employability Skills (Common Module)* Communication Skills (English & Basic Computer)
 * Information Technology (IT) Literacy
 * Entrepreneurship Skills
 * Occupational Safety, Health & Environment (OSH&E)

 

 Typical Time Distribution

 

In a one-year program, the hours are heavily skewed towards practical training:

Trade Practical: Approximately 60-70% of the course duration.

Trade Theory, Workshop Calculation & Science, Engineering Drawing, and Employability Skills: The remaining 30-40%.

Many courses also include a component of On-the-Job Training (OJT) or a Group Project at the end to provide real-world industrial exposure.
