Dear and Respected Shalini

I am sorry to Mr. Gerard Foley, his advice to refer to the is not right. First of all there is lot of difference among electrical, IT hardware and electronics trades. The said site is dedicated to electronics professionals like me and not for the fresh learners.

And I also agree with Ms Anita that 72 hours learning time would not be enough. It should be at least 6 Months for Electrician and 4 Months for IT hardware.

Please find the curriculum developed by me you can find useful
