If you’re a diploma, degree or NTC/NAC holder looking to teach at a government Industrial Training Institute in Delhi, this is one to look at closely. The Directorate of Training and Technical Education (DTTE) has opened engagement of Part Time Instructors (PTIs) on a purely hourly basis for the 2026-27 academic session, spread across 47 trades and four ITI clusters in the capital.

01What This Recruitment Is About

Under the aegis of DTTE, Government of NCT of Delhi, eligible candidates are being invited to work as Part Time Instructors in Government Industrial Training Institutes. Unlike a regular teaching post, PTIs are paid strictly on an hourly basis for the theory and practical classes they take, and the engagement automatically ends with the academic session — there’s no claim to a permanent or contractual role afterward.

The final number of instructors engaged in each trade will depend on the functional requirement of the department at the time of engagement, so the vacancy figures below are indicative ceilings rather than guaranteed openings.

02Pay Scale / Honorarium

Payment is calculated per hour of teaching, with a separate rate for theory and practical classes, and a monthly ceiling regardless of hours taught.

Note: The monthly honorarium is capped at ₹30,000 per instructor irrespective of the category or number of hours taught.

03Eligibility Criteria

Qualification requirements are trade-specific, but they follow one common pattern across all 47 trades in this notice:

• Degree route: A relevant B.Voc/Degree (AICTE/UGC recognised) with 1 year of experience in the relevant field
• Diploma route: A relevant 3-year Diploma (or equivalent Advanced Diploma from DGT) with 2 years of experience in the relevant field
• NTC/NAC/STC route: NTC/NAC/STC in the relevant trade with 3 years of experience in the relevant field

Age limit: Maximum 60 years for direct applicants. Senior retired staff equivalent to Group Instructor or above (from DTTE/Industry/Armed Forces on attaining 60 years) can be engaged up to a maximum of 65 years.

Since the exact degree/diploma stream differs for each of the 47 trades (for example, Electrician asks for Electrical Engineering while Cosmetology asks for a Beautician/Hair & Skin Care qualification), candidates should cross-check their own qualification against the trade-wise annexure in the official application form before applying.

04Trade-Wise Vacancy Break-Up (216 Posts, 4 Clusters)

Vacancies are distributed across four ITI clusters, and every cluster covers a distinct set of trades. A candidate may apply to more than one cluster, but a separate application is required for each trade and each cluster.

Cluster: ITI AKS (Nizamuddin) — 53 Posts

Cluster: ITI Pusa — 53 Posts

Cluster: ITI Jail Road — 58 Posts

Cluster: ITI Sirifort (Jija Bai ITI for Women) — 52 Posts

06How to Apply — Step by Step

1. Download the application form along with the detailed terms, conditions and trade-wise eligibility annexure from the official DTTE website, tte.delhi.gov.in.
2. Fill the form carefully, paste a recent self-attested passport-size photograph, and sign it.
3. Attach self-attested copies of all certificates — qualification, category, PwD (if applicable) and experience.
4. Choose your cluster(s) and trade(s). You may apply to multiple clusters and trades, but each trade in each cluster needs its own separate application.
5. Submit offline only to the concerned cluster ITI, within 15 days from the date of advertisement. Applications sent to DTTE HQ, any other ITI, or through online/offline means outside the designated cluster will not be entertained.
6. Stay in touch with the cluster ITI for the interview schedule — no separate call letter is guaranteed.

07Other Important Points

• The engagement is purely temporary and lasts only until the end of the 2026-27 academic session, as decided by the Competent Authority, DTTE HQ.
• Selected candidates can be posted to any ITI under DTTE as per departmental requirement — requests regarding place of posting or transfer will not be entertained.
• The number of vacancies shown above can be increased or reduced by DTTE without prior notice.
• Selection does not create any right to a regular, permanent, or full-time contractual position, or to continuation in the next academic session.
• For any query, candidates should contact the Principal / Vice Principal / Head of the concerned cluster ITI — not DTTE HQ.
