About Us

With the steady growth of industrial and technical developments in the post independence period the need for technically qualified personnel increased but the facilities for training remained limited. A few technical training institutes were set up for training students in various trades but without uniform standard syllabi. ITES took the lead in framing common syllabi for examinations in the various faculties and started conducting examinations on All India basis. Lately, a number of Open Universities have been set up in India and abroad; the ITES however, remains the pioneer organization in conducting Open Merit Examinations for students in technical subjects for the past Six decades.
