5.2.1     Protocol for inspection of a training centre

All training centres will be inspected by persons trained in DDU-GKY processes. In emergencies if inspections are done by SRLM/CTSA/MoRD personnel not trained in DDU-GKY processes the same should be reviewed and ratified by personnel trained in DDU-GKY.

(If the centre does not run throughout the year, the number of inspections will be reduced proportionately but there should be at least one inspection by Q team in a year).

5.2.1.1     Deleted

Content of the section is deleted, however the section is retained to maintain the number continuity

5.2.1.2     PIA Q team

  • Q team will inspect a training centre at least 6 times in a year of which at least 4 will be planned inspections. These inspections should be staggered such that a centre is inspected around 40 days after a batch starts.
  • Remaining inspections will be surprise. During surprise visits the team should check 2 modules randomly picked by the system. In addition the team can choose two more modules as per the situational needs.

5.2.1.3     SRLM (or its TSA) for APS/CTSA for YPS

  • SRLM/CTSA will undertake around 4 inspections of a training centre per annum of which two will be detailed and two will be surprise. The inspections should be so staggered to cover all the batches trained in a centre.
  • Modules to be inspected during surprise check will be randomly generated by the ERP system. SRLM/CTSA can also choose additional items to be inspected as per their choice.
  • In addition to their regular inspections they will audit PIA Q team inspections.
  • CTSA inspections for YPS would be of the same nature as the SRLM of an APS.

5.2.1.4     CTSA (for APS and YPS)

  • CTSA will conduct the inspections to audit inspections of PIA Q team and the SRLM 
  • In this role CTSA will undertake at least 3 visits to a training centre - 2 surprise and 1 detailed
  • It will ensure that each centre will undergo due diligence inspection before initiation of training.
  • For APS SRLM will ensure compliance of its reports and CTSA reports.
  • For YPS CTSA will take corrective action based on its inspections and those undertaken by the SRLM.

5.2.1.5     Role of SRLMs in YPS

SRLM in an YPS can play an active role in ensuring quality of the programme. However, as SRLM team is not strengthened no schedules are prescribed for their inspections. Depending on the staff availability, SRLM is encouraged to get its personnel trained in DDU-GKY procedures and to enable monitoring by its team.

All inspection reports of SRLM of YPS should be sent to CTSA, PIA and MoRD. It is the responsibility of the PIA to comply with items and send a compliance report through the PIA Q team to SRLM and CTSA. CTSA will monitor and ensure proper compliance.
