Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between NCVT and SCVT ITI certificates for government jobs?
NCVT (National Council for Vocational Training) certificates are issued by DGET (Directorate General of Employment & Training) at the national level — accepted for government jobs across all states and central government recruitments. SCVT (State Council for Vocational Training) certificates are state-specific — accepted within the issuing state and some neighboring states, but may not be accepted for central government recruitment or in other states. For government jobs: NCVT ITI Carpenter certificate is universally preferred and recommended. If you have SCVT: check specific recruitment notifications — many central government recruitments explicitly specify "NCVT certificate from recognised ITI." SCVT holders in some states can upgrade to NCVT by appearing for the national NCVT exam.
What is CPWD and how do Carpenter ITI holders join it?
CPWD (Central Public Works Department) is a central government organisation under Ministry of Housing & Urban Affairs responsible for construction and maintenance of all central government buildings (Parliament, Supreme Court, President House, central secretariat, AIIMS, IITs, NIT campuses, central prisons, airports).
