What DIPR actually does
Defence Institute of Psychological Research (DIPR) is a DRDO lab on Lucknow Road, Timarpur, Delhi 110054. It works on psychological research for the defence services. This notice is not a psychology internship for BA or MA students. It is for ITI pass-outs in seven trades. If you are a college student looking for a policy intern, this is the wrong desk.
DIPR is engaging 24 apprentices. Training after the rebate printed on the table is one year. The Act duration column is longer for some trades. The notice says DIPR has no obligation to offer employment after the training.
What kind of seat this dipr delhi iti apprenticeship 2026 is
ITI trade apprenticeship under the Apprentices Act, 1961 and the Apprenticeship Rules, 1992. SCVT and NCVET certificates are accepted. You must already be registered on the apprenticeship portal. Unregistered applications are not considered. Counts may vary with requirement.
Who should apply — and who should skip
Apply if you have passed ITI in Steward, Desk Top Publishing Operator, Secretariat Assistant (English or Hindi), Photographer, COPA, IT / IT ESM (Information and Communication Technology System Maintenance), or Multimedia and Web Page Designer, and you have a NAPS enrolment number.
Skip if you are a degree student with no ITI in these trades, if you are not on apprenticeshipindia.gov.in, or if a shop asks you to pay to “get the DIPR form accepted”. No fee is printed. Age must meet the Act minimum and must not cross the Act maximum. The PDF does not print a year number, so the Act line is the rule.
