10 Training Methodology The course will follow the T + L+T+ L+ T + L methodology. Wherever applicable or mentioned, the student will have to create and submit assignments and will have to appear for Internal Tests. Assignments [A]: Assignments for each module should be completed during the allocated time. The assignments will have to be submitted to the faculty for evaluation. Internal Tests [Te]: The student will have to appear for Internal Tests. The faculty will prepare the objective questions for Internal Tests only. Internal Tests for modules mentioned in the evaluation table should be completed during the time allocated for test. Presenter s Manual Aptech Limited Page 10
