I am gratefully remember the founder of Social Welfare Technical Institute, Very Rev.Fr. Basilius Panatt CST, who started this institute for the welfare of the society by giving technical education to the youth of weaker sections of the society.
God has led us along the path of growth and a glance at the 55 years gives us more confidence in future. From the very beginning, this institute was one of the leading ITI in Kerala with regards to its academic performance and good collaboration with other industrial firms. All the students who passed out and wished to take up a job got immediately employed and kept us its good name
I wish all the best and prayer full blessings for the future days.

Traditionally, ITI courses have been very popular among the students, especially from rural areas, as they provide courses that focus on skill development. Students who walk out of ITIs are skilled professionals, either in the Engineering or Non-Engineering trades.
The 21st century is the century of skills and knowledge; professionals who possess specialized skills or have the right knowledge and know how to apply them have been successful. Therefore, thinking that ITI courses are inferior to the others or do not present good career opportunities will be wrong. In fact, with rising unemployment rates, in many cases, ITI students who have the right skill set and training will have a better chance of employment as compared to others who hold higher academic qualifications.
As far as career opportunities are concerned, ITI students have two main options that are available to them, i.e., either go for further studies or explore job opportunities. Both these options have their own advantages as discussed below:
Just like other professional and vocational courses institute, even ITIs have dedicated placement cells which look after placement of students. These placement cells have tie-ups with various private companies and even foreign companies, who hire the students for jobs in several trades.
The biggest employer of ITI students is the public sector or the government agencies. Students who have completed their ITI can seek employment with various Public Sector Units / PSUs such as Railways, Telecom / BSNL, IOCL, ONCG, State-wise PWDs, KSEB and others. In addition to this, they can also explore career opportunities with the Indian Armed Forces i.e. Indian Army. Indian Navy, Air force, BSF, CRPF and other paramilitary forces.
Private sector, especially the ones dealing in manufacturing and mechanics seek out ITI students for trade specific jobs. The key sectors in which ITI students can find lucrative career opportunities include construction, agriculture, textiles, energy. As far as specific job profiles are concerned, electronics, welding, electrical works, automobile are the most sought-after skills in an ITI student in the private sector.
This is probably the most important advantage of opting for ITI course, as it allows one to start own business and be self-employed. Thanks to the preference towards white-collar jobs, professionals who do blue collar services. Therefore, today we find an acute shortage of trained and qualified plumbers, carpenters, construction workers, agricultural workers etc. This is a great opportunity for students with an ITI certificate to start their business and be self-employed.
Another career opportunity that ITI students can explore after the completion of their course is off-shore jobs. Similar to India, many developed and developing countries are facing the shortage of blue-collar professionals; people who can fix things or provide associated services. Especially for specific trades like Fritters, there are many job opportunities with international oil and gas factories and shipyards etc.
