Electromechanics for Secondary School leavers

This is a Technical Skills Training Program (TSTP) that prepares young secondary school graduates to become multi-skilled industrial technicians who can maintain, repair, and install various production equipment and facilities. It is a combination of Electrical, Mechanical, Electronics and Automation trade areas. Graduates of this course are multi-skilled, flexible industrial technicians capable of working in high-level manufacturing and engineering services environments.
This program constitutes the primary purpose of setting up IIT. Enrolment to the program is currently determined by the available  scholarship fund. The admission process into the program takes place between February and May.

The course consists of two phases using the block-release scheme of the Dual Training System (DTS). The first phase is the 12-month Basic Skills Training Phase (BSTP) wherein the students spend full-time in-school undergoing training in preparation for the NTC of NABTEB examination in Mechanical engineering craft practice.

The second phase is the 24-month Advanced Skills Training Phase (ASTP) that is conducted in the second and third years. In their 2nd year, the students will spend alternate block periods of 3 months between the selected partner companies and the school. In the final year, the students spend 6 months in the factory and 6 months in school. They sit for the Diploma examination of City & Guilds of London in applied Electrical Engineering in the third year.
