The Vocational Training Programme (VTP) equips youth with market-relevant skills across diverse trade categories. Mantra's Aadhaar-enabled biometric devices ensure accurate student attendance, authentic eKYC registration and reliable placement tracking - upholding the integrity of every VTP cohort.
The Vocational Training Programme (VTP) is a Government of India skill development initiative conducted through Industrial Training Institutes (ITIs), Polytechnics and private vocational centres. VTP focuses on equipping youth with practical, trade-specific competencies that improve their employability in manufacturing, services and technology sectors.
Aadhaar-based biometric devices are mandated at VTP centres for accurate student enrolment (eKYC), daily attendance marking and post-training placement verification. Mantra's devices are trusted by VTP implementing agencies to maintain transparent, auditable records linked to the NCVT (National Council for Vocational Training) and other skill authority systems.
Advanced optical sensor reliably captures fingerprints of industrial trainees - even those with rough, scarred or worn prints from manual work.
End-to-end encrypted biometric authentication through UIDAI's secure L1 RD Service channel meets all government compliance requirements.
Attendance records sync instantly with VTP management portals - enabling trainers and administrators to access live participation data.
Plug-and-play USB 2.0 connection with WHQL certified drivers - no technical expertise needed for setup at training centres.
Competitive bulk pricing for VTP implementing agencies - enabling biometric deployment across all centres in a district or state at once.
Same device supports PMKVY, AEBAS, Jeevan Pramaan and CSC services - VTPs can leverage multiple government schemes with one investment.

Primary biometric device for VTP student attendance and eKYC registration. UIDAI L1 certified with auto-capture for diverse trainee fingerprint conditions.
Provides iris authentication fallback for VTP trainees with worn fingerprints, ensuring 100% student attendance compliance across all trades.
Common questions about biometric device requirements for Vocational Training Programme operations.
VTP mandates UIDAI L1 certified Aadhaar biometric devices for student attendance and eKYC. Mantra MFS110 (fingerprint) and MIS100V2 (iris) are both approved - MFS110 for primary authentication and MIS100V2 as fallback for trainees with difficult fingerprints.
Biometric attendance eliminates proxy attendance (a common challenge in skill training), ensures certification is awarded only to genuinely trained candidates, and provides auditable records for government inspections and NCVT evaluations - directly improving placement rates and scheme credibility.
Yes. Mantra devices integrate with the NCVT-MIS portal via standard UIDAI RD Service APIs. Any VTP centre software that uses Aadhaar L1 authentication can work with Mantra MFS110 or MIS100V2 out of the box.
Yes. Mantra offers dedicated support for bulk VTP deployments including competitive pricing, installation support, driver updates and after-sales service. VTP implementing agencies, state skill missions and ITI networks can contact Mantra for customised partnership arrangements.
