Guidelines for Assessment
No.
1 Criteria for assessment for each Qualification Pack will be created by the Sector Skill
Council. Each Performance Criteria (PC) will be assigned marks proportional to its
importance in NOS. SSC will also lay down proportion of marks for Theory and Skills
Practical for each PC.
2 The assessment for the theory part will be based on knowledge bank of questions created
by the SSC.
3 Individual assessment agencies will create unique question papers for theory part for each
candidate at each examination/training centre(as per assessment criteria below)
4 Individual assessment agencies will create unique evaluations for skill practical for every
student at each examination/training canter based on this criteria
5 To pass the Qualification Pack, every trainee should score a minimum of 60% in aggregate
and 40% in each NOS
6 The marks are allocated PC wise; however, every NOS will carry a weight age in the total
marks allocated to the specific QP
