7.1 Tracking and Desk verification of data

Chapter 7 gives a detailed procedure for tracking and placement.

“Retention tracking for all DDU-GKY interventions is for 365 calendar days (page 11, guidelines)”

All the candidates should be tracked at least once in a month (12 times in a year) for a period of 1 year i.e. 365 calendar days from the date of completion of training

The placement criteria for the candidates depend on their tracking details. Candidates have to go through a two steps process namely, Desk Verification and Physical verification before they are confirmed as “Placed or Not Placed”.

7.1    Tracking and Desk verification of data

Once the training is completed, candidates are tracked every month for 12 months from the date of training completion. It is the responsibility of the PIA OP Team to provide the relevant documents required for tracking of the candidate.

According to the data submitted by the PIA OP Team the candidates will be categorized into Group A or Group B as mentioned in SF 7.1A: Tracking and Related definitions.

No prescriptive steps are indicated on how PIAs should ensure that all candidates are tracked accurately on various parameters. PIAs are free to devise their methods, so that data is captured accurately. They will be held liable for any errors in the report. Still few of the modes of tracking which the PIA can adopt for tracking of candidates is mentioned in modes of tracking in SF 7.1A: Tracking and Related definitions”.

To be submitted by 20th of every month

SF 7.1G: List of candidates who are in Group ‘A’

 

Note: 1. For cases where a PIA could not submit data and documents as per the timeline: A PIA can submit data and documents with a month delay for a maximum of 20% of candidates in Group A in the month. For these candidates the document verification schedule will be as per the month in which documents and data are submitted. For example if placement is in January but documents are submitted as per March timeline (instead of February timeline) verification will follow the March timeline.

With reference to the above the following is further clarified:

  • No candidate will be deprived of PPS if PIA has submitted the documents late and the PIA will be eligible for reimbursement as per conditions laid out for payment of PPS in Chapter8 Section 4.4.
  • A PIA can withhold the entitlements if it can be established beyond a reasonable doubt that the delay is on account of a delayed submission by a candidate. All these cases should be reported to the SRLM for APS and CTSA for YPS and they will be compiled by the ERP system for exception management.
  • Delayed document submission for the month need not imply a delayed physical verification. It can follow the original schedule if complete data is in place as per the required schedule otherwise it will be delayed by a month.
