TITP (Technical Intern Training Program)
What is Technical Intern Training Program (TITP)?
The Technical Intern Training Program (TITP) was initiated in Japan back in 1993 with the aim of supporting developing countries by hosting their citizens and imparting skills through On-the-Job Training (OJT). This program serves as a platform for international cooperation, facilitating the transfer of skills, techniques, and knowledge gained by technical interns to their home countries. By doing so, it not only enhances human resource development but also contributes to the economic growth of these regions.
In alignment with India's ambition to become the skill capital of the world, the Ministry of Skill Development and Entrepreneurship (MSDE), Government of India, has undertaken various measures to bolster skill development initiatives. One significant step in this direction was the signing of a Memorandum of Cooperation (MoC) with Japan's Ministry of Justice, Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare on October 17, 2017. This MoC aims to substantially enhance bilateral cooperation between India and Japan in the field of skill development.
Under this collaborative program, individuals from India are selected to undergo internships lasting three to five years in Japan. Upon completion of their internships, they are required to return to India and apply the skills they have acquired during their time in Japan. To oversee the implementation of this program, the MSDE appointed the National Skill Development Corporation (NSDC) in January 2018 to serve as the monitoring body.
Key Features:
- Period of Training – Trained individuals are sent to Japan for ‘internship’ for three to five years
- Job Categories – As of July 2026, 96 job categories and 174 operations provided under TITP through which a candidate can participate
- Trainings in India – Candidates are required to be trained by the Sending Organizations in the Japanese language, Japanese lifestyle orientation & business etiquettes and relevant domain training
- Return to India – After completion of the program, the trainees are expected to return to India and utilize the acquired skills in Japan
TITP Updates:
“2680 Indian interns sent to Japan in Automobile, Machinery, Construction, Care Worker, Agriculture, Food Manufacturing, Textile, and Other sectors as on end of December 2025”
What is a Sending Organization?
Qualified and motivated young individuals who seek to enhance their technical skills through the Technical Intern Training Program (TITP) in Japan are selected and prepared in India by Sending Organizations. These organizations identify candidates based on specified eligibility criteria and provide them with pre-departure training in Japanese language, culture, and business etiquette. Sending Organizations are tasked with adequately preparing candidates to meet the requirements of companies in Japan. For a comprehensive understanding of the roles and responsibilities of Sending Organizations, please refer to the TITP Guidelines.

PMKVY (Pradhan Mantri Kaushal Vikas Yojana)
The Need for a Skilled India
India is home to one of the world's largest youth populations — a powerful demographic dividend. Rapid
technological change, digital transformation, automation, Industry 4.0 and shifting labour-market demands
have created an urgent need for a workforce equipped with industry-relevant skills. Traditional classroom
education alone can no longer keep pace with employer expectations, which is why competency-based
training, lifelong learning, digital literacy, entrepreneurship and emerging technologies have moved to the
centre of India's skilling agenda.
A skilled workforce is fundamental to sustainable economic growth, higher productivity, stronger
investment inflows and India's positioning as a global talent hub. Under the Skill India Mission and
Atmanirbhar Bharat, the focus has shifted to building a future-ready workforce capable of meeting both
domestic and global employment opportunities.
What is PMKVY?
Pradhan Mantri Kaushal Vikas Yojana (PMKVY) is the flagship, outcome-based skill-training scheme of the
Ministry of Skill Development & Entrepreneurship (MSDE), implemented under Skill India through the
National Skill Development Corporation (NSDC). It is India's largest skill-certification scheme, designed to
mobilise large numbers of Indian youth into outcome-based skill training so that they become employable
and can earn a sustainable livelihood.
The scheme was launched by the Prime Minister on 15th July 2015 — World Youth Skills Day — with the
ambition of skilling one crore (10 million) youth across the country. PMKVY equips candidates trained at
state-of-the-art centres, at home, or under master craftspersons, to meet the needs of international
markets, national industry and rural livelihoods alike, marking the first major step towards making India the
skill capital of the world.

Training Pathways under PMKVY 4.0
PMKVY 4.0 offers candidates three distinct pathways into skilled employment — each designed for a
different starting point, from first-time learners to experienced workers and special target groups.
Short-Term Training (STT)
Structured, industry-aligned training delivered to unemployed youth and school/college dropouts, opening
pathways to both wage and self-employment. Courses are NSQF-aligned and typically run 300–600 hours,
with longer durations offered where industry or sectoral demand requires it. Training is delivered through
accredited and affiliated training centres, and On-the-Job Training (OJT) is a mandatory component as
required by NCVET, with duration depending on the job role.
Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL)
RPL certifies the skills of individuals who have already acquired competencies through informal learning or
hands-on work experience. Following due assessment, candidates receive industry-relevant certification;
those wishing to upskill can undertake additional coursework to qualify for certification at a higher level.
Special Projects
Project-based, short-term skilling initiatives that respond to the needs of marginalised and vulnerable
groups, difficult geographies, and specialised training requirements that fall outside the scope of regular
short-term programmes. Special Projects may also target new-age job roles built around future skills, and
can be residential or non-residential, with certain exemptions available subject to Executive Committee
approval.
Training Workflow
While each pathway has its own detailed process, candidates typically move through the following broad
stages from enrolment to placement.
