Education was recognized the world over, the felt need of producing world class diploma holders become important and urgent.

its effective implementation, the associated training of educators, academic monitoring, development of learning materials &
lab manuals became essential functions of the curriculum development center. Gradually as the National skill development mission,
MHRD and other departments and agencies started focusing their attention on increasing technicians and skilled manpower in the country,
the mandate of the Centre also expanded to other aspects of developing Skilled Technicians in the State.
