The commercial training aims to enable students to acquire practical knowledge of

operational safety and safety equipment in a renowned industry or institution. The training
includes practical training on industrial security devices, case studies on security
measures/systems used in the industry/institution, and new safety protection techniques. The
training takes place in groups of people.
Students are required to complete industrial training in a reputed industry or Institution
during a vacation of approximately 10 to 15 days. For students seeking commercial training,
the industry chosen for training must be at least a stock corporation. During this time,
students submit and submit a progress report to the institute for internal review at least once a
week.
The final examination at the end of the commercial training semester is carried out by an
external examiner and an internal examiner named by the Institute. The external examiner
will be from the Alagappa University-approved panel of the concerned institute. The
assessment of industrial training is carried out based on a seminar, an interview, a report, and
a certificate. Industrial Training or Institutional Project Work obtained by a student of an
industry or institute.
The internal distribution of grades for students with commercial training includes 25 points
from the industrial company and 75 points from the members of a commission made up of
professors from the respective department at the parent university. The teachers hired to work
on the institutional project have a workload of 2 hours per group (at least 6 students) per
week.
