1. BACKGROUND
1.1. ABOUT TECHNICAL INTERN TRAINING PROGRAM (TITP)
Skills and knowledge are the motivating forces for the economic and social development of any country.
As India moves towards becoming a global knowledge-based economy, equipping its workforce with skills
required for today's jobs and those of the future is a strategic concern for India's development outlook.
India is one of the youngest nations in the world, with more than 62% of its population in the working-
age group (15-59 years) and more than 54% of its total population below 25 years of age 1. Given India's
favourable demographic dividend coupled with the aging population in other parts of the world, several
international markets, including Japan, are vying for skilled Indian workers. To reap the demographic
dividend and meet the demand of countries for a skilled workforce, the Government of India (hereafter
referred to as ‘GoI’) is equipping the Indian youth with employable skills and knowledge. To further this
cause and amplify the impetus for making India the world's skill capital, GoI has initiated several measures.
One such noteworthy step is signing of the Memorandum of Cooperation (hereafter referred to as
‘MoC’) on the Technical Intern Training Program (hereafter referred to as ‘TITP’ or ‘Program’)
between the Ministry of Skill Development and Entrepreneurship of India (hereafter referred to as
the ‘MSDE’) and the Ministry of Justice, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and the Ministry of Health, Labour
and Welfare of Japan. The MoC was signed on October 17, 2017, to significantly expand the bilateral
cooperation between India and Japan in the field of skill development. The Program aims to transform the
skill ecosystem in India by sending and accepting technical interns from India to Japan, thereby enabling
Indian industries to imbibe the best practices of Japanese industries. National Skill Development
Corporation (hereafter referred to as ‘NSDC’) has been monitoring the Program since 2018.
these countries through on-the-job training (internship). The purpose was to promote international
cooperation by transferring skills, techniques, and knowledge developed by technical interns in Japan to
developing regions and contributing to the human resource development that will be the driving force

behind the economic development of the said developing regions. More than 30 countries have been
sending interns to Japan through the TITP route. There are 2,76,123 technical interns in Japan as of end of
2021 (Figure 1). The data represents the number of technical interns staying in Japan sent by various
countries. India commenced its operations in 2018 for TITP after the MoC signing in October 2017.

to them such as:
a) FINANCIA BENEFITS:
o Attractive compensation
b) OTHER BENEFITS:
o Opportunity to work as Specified Skilled Worker (SSW)3 in Japan after completing three (3) years of
TITP successfully.
c) JOB CATEGORIES:
Candidate can pursue TITP in Japan under specific sectors and job categories. The list of all sectors and the
related job categories are available on https://www.otit.go.jp/files/user/200303-6.pdf. SOs are advised to

Specified Skilled Worker (SSW) is a new residency status introduced by the Government of Japan in April 2019, with the objective of
addressing severe skilled workers’ shortages by accepting foreign workers with specific expertise and skills in Japan. The Governments of
India and Japan signed a MoC on SSW in January 2021.

d) RETURN TO INDIA:
After completing the training in Japan, the interns may return to their home country and utilize the skills
acquired in Japan. The interns are also allowed to apply for SSW residency status in Japan, after completing
their TITP tenure and continue their stay in Japan. This is permissible, provided all the regulations of Japan
are followed. Further, the concerned Sending Organization shall keep NSDC informed of any such
developments where the TITP intern gets converted to SSW and provide the necessary supporting
documents to NSDC for that intern, which proves that the intern has got a job under SSW and all the
required formalities as per the rules and regulations of the employers/ concerned authorities are fulfilled.
