FOREWORD

The Government of India has set an ambitious target of imparting skills to 30 crores people, one out of every
four Indians, by 2020 to help them secure jobs as part of the National Skills Development Policy. Industrial
Training Institutes (ITIs) play a vital role in this process especially in terms of providing skilled manpower.
Keeping this in mind, and for providing the current industry relevant skill training to Trainees, ITI syllabus
has been recently updated with the help of Mentor Councils comprising various stakeholder's viz. Industries,
Entrepreneurs, Academicians and representatives from ITIs.

The National Instructional Media Institute (NIMI), Chennai, has now come up with instructional material to
suit the revised curriculum for Computer Operator and Programming Assistant Trade Practical 1st
Semester in IT & ITES Sector . The NSQF Level - 4 Trade Practical will help the trainees to get an international
equivalency standard where their skill proficiency and competency will be duly recognized across the globe
and this will also increase the scope of recognition of prior learning. NSQF Level - 4 trainees will also get
the opportunities to promote life long learning and skill development. I have no doubt that with NSQF Level
- 4 the trainers and trainees of ITIs, and all stakeholders will derive maximum benefits from these IMPs and
that NIMI's effort will go a long way in improving the quality of Vocational training in the country.

The Executive Director & Staff of NIMI and members of Media Development Committee deserve appreciation
for their contribution in bringing out this publication.

PREFACE
The National Instructional Media Institute (NIMI) was established in 1986 at Chennai by then Directorate
General of Employment and Training (D.G.E & T), Ministry of Labour and Employment, (now under
Directorate General of Training, Ministry of Skill Development and Entrepreneurship) Government of India,
with technical assistance from the Govt. of the Federal Republic of Germany. The prime objective of this
institute is to develop and provide instructional materials for various trades as per the prescribed syllabi
under the Craftsman and Apprenticeship Training Schemes.

The instructional materials are created keeping in mind, the main objective of Vocational Training under
NCVT/NAC in India, which is to help an individual to master skills to do a job. The instructional materials
are generated in the form of Instructional Media Packages (IMPs). An IMP consists of Theory book,
Practical book, Test and Assignment book, Instructor Guide, Audio Visual Aid (Wall charts and
Transparencies) and other support materials.

The trade practical book consists of series of exercises to be completed by the trainees in the workshop.
These exercises are designed to ensure that all the skills in the prescribed syllabus are covered. The trade
theory book provides related theoretical knowledge required to enable the trainee to do a job. The test and
assignments will enable the instructor to give assignments for the evaluation of the performance of a
trainee. The wall charts and transparencies are unique, as they not only help the instructor to effectively
present a topic but also help him to assess the trainee's understanding. The instructor guide enables the
instructor to plan his schedule of instruction, plan the raw material requirements, day to day lessons and
demonstrations.

IMPs also deals with the complex skills required to be developed for effective team work. Necessary care
has also been taken to include important skill areas of allied trades as prescribed in the syllabus.

The availability of a complete Instructional Media Package in an institute helps both the trainer and
management to impart effective training.

The IMPs are the outcome of collective efforts of the staff members of NIMI and the members of the Media
Development Committees specially drawn from Public and Private sector industries, various training institutes
under the Directorate General of Training (DGT), Government and Private ITIs.

NIMI would like to take this opportunity to convey sincere thanks to the Directors of Employment &
Training of various State Governments, Training Departments of Industries both in the Public and Private
sectors, Officers of DGT and DGT field institutes, proof readers, individual media developers and coordinators,
but for whose active support NIMI would not have been able to bring out this materials.

INTRODUCTION
TRADE THEORY

The manual of trade theory consists of theorectical information for the First Semester couse of the
COPATrade. The contents are sequenced accoring to the practical exercise contained in the manual on Trade
practical. Attempt has been made to relate the theortical aspects with the skill covered in each exercise to
the extent possible. This co-relation is maintained to help the trainees to develop the perceptional capabilities
for performing the skills.

The Trade Theory has to be taught and learnt along with the corresponding exercise contained in the manual
on trade practical. The indicating about the corresponding practical exercise are given in every sheet of this
manual.

It will be preferable to teach/learn the trade theory connected to each exercise atleast one class before
performing the related skills in the system lab. The trade theory is to be treated as an integrated part of each
exercise.

The material is not the purpose of self learning and should be considered as supplementary to class room
instruction.

TRADE PRACTICAL

The trade practical manual is intented to be used in workshop . It consists of a series of practical exercies
to be completed by the trainees during the First Semester course of the COPA trade supplemented and
supported by instructions/ informations to assist in performing the exercises. These exercises are designed
to ensure that all the skills in the prescribed syllabus are covered.

The manual is divided into twelve modules to maintain completancy of leaning process in a stipulated time
basis.

The skill training in the computer lab is planned through a series of practical exercises centred around some
practical project. However, there are few instance where the individual exercise does not form a part of project.

While developing the practical manual a sincere effort was made to prepare each exercise which will be easy
to understand and carry out even by below average traninee. However the development team accept that there
if a scope for further improvement. NIMI, looks forward to the suggestions from the experienced training faculty
for improving the manual.

Result. The monthly payment equals $1,074.65. (Fig 2) Fig 5

Fig 2

Conclusion: if we make monthly payments of


$2,074.65, it takes less than 90 months to pay
off this loan.
Tip: when working with financial functions in
Excel, always ask yourself the question, am I
PV
making a payment (negative) or am I receiving
money (positive)? We pay off a loan of $150,000 5 Or the PV (Present Value) function. If we make monthly
(positive, we received that amount) and we payments of $1,074.65 on a 20-year loan, with an
make monthly payments of $1,074.65 annual interest rate of 6%. (Fig 6)
(negative, we pay). Fig 6

Rate

Fv
6 And the FV (Future Value) function. If we make monthly
payments of $1,074.65 on a 20-year loan,With an
annual interest rate of 6%, do we pay off this loan?
Yes. (Fig 7)

Nper
3 Or the NPER function. If we make monthly payments
of $1,074.65 on a 20-year loan, with an annual
interest rate of 6%, it takes 240 months to pay off this
loan. (Fig 4)

But, if make monthly payments of only


$1,000.00, we still have debt after 20 years.
(Fig 8)

Number of Words

This example describes how to count the number


of words in a cell.

1 Use the LEN function to get the length of the string


Explanation: to find the position of the comma,
(25 characters, including spaces). (Fig 12)
use the FIND function (position 6). To get the
length of a string, use the LEN function (11 Fig 12
characters). =RIGHT(A2,LEN(A2)-FIND(",",A2)-
1) reduces to =RIGHT(A2,11-6-1). =RIGHT(A2,4)
extracts the 4 rightmost characters and gives
the desired result (Mike).

2 Get the last name, use the following formula. (Fig 10)
Fig 10

2 The SUBSTITUTE function replaces existing text with


new text in a string. LENS 9SUBSTITUTE (A1, B1,’’”))
equals 13 (the length of the string without the words
dog). If we subtract this number from 25, we get the
length of the dog instances (25-13=12). (Fig 13)

Fig 13

Explanation: to find the position of the comma,


use the FIND function (position 6).
=LEFT(A2,FIND(",", A2)-1) reduces to =LEFT(A2,6-
1). =LEFT(A2,5) extracts the 5 leftmost characters
and gives the desired result (Smith).

Dividing this number by the length of the word dog (3),gives


us the dog instances (12/3=4)
Number of Words

This example describes how to count the


number of words in a cell.

2a The SUBSTITUTE function replaces existing text with
new text in a text string. We use the SUBSTITUTE Fig 20
function to get the string without spaces. (Fig 16)
Fig 16

2 Use the UPPER function to convert all letters in a text


string to uppercase. (Fig 21)

Fig 21
2b.Get the length of the string without spaces, we
combine the LEN and SUBSTITUTE function. (Fig 17)
Fig 17

3 Use the PROPER function to convert a text string to


proper case. That is, the first letter in each word in
uppercase, and all other letters in lowercase. (Fig 22)
4 Now comes the simple trick. To get the number of
Fig 22
words, we subtract the length of the string without
spaces (10) from the length of the string with normal
spaces (12) and add 1. (Fig 18)

Lower/Upper Case
This example teaches you how to convert a text string to
lower, upper or proper case in Excel. (Fig 19)

small down arrow to the right of Transition Sound. A
drop down list of sounds will appear. We chose Chime
for our Slide 1 Transition.
Notice at the bottom of the "list" it indicates Other
Sound…. When we found the bat sound on Microsoft
Office Online, it placed the sound in our Clip Art
Organizer. To use this sound we had to choose Other
Sound. When we did, it was added to our list at the top.
As you get more comfortable with sounds, you can find
some really neat sounds all over the internet. (Fig 25)

slide and selecting a different transition for each slide.
Or - Notice - on the right side of theTransition to This

Fig 8 Option Group Wizard will launch. The Option Group
Wizard takes care of setting up the Option Group and
binding it to a column (field) in a table.

labels to each option. For this example assign the
following to the labels: Account Open and Account
Closedas shown in Fig4. Click on the Next> button to
continue:

a value to each of the option group's options. These
values must be an integer. When binding to a table
column (field) with the "Yes/No" data type, the values
assigned need to be 0 and -1

prior step is assigned, Access can either hold on to the
value or pass it along to a specific column (field) in the table.
In this case bind the Option Group to the AccountClosed
field by selecting the second option and selecting the
AccountClosed field from the list. Click on the Next> button
to continue:
