Learning & Training Expectations

Candidates work through the eight official units, complete mandatory safety documentation, and meet the published assessment scheme. Training sessions listed on the institutional timetable support delivery; they do not replace the syllabus.

Attendance Requirements

न्यूनतम 80% उपस्थिति अनिवार्य (Attendance / उपस्थिति मापदंड).

Minimum attendance used by the existing readiness logic: 80%. Only institutionally confirmed attendance for an official programme session may affect official attendance calculations. Event registration, event attendance, seminar or workshop participation, and a Google Meet join attempt are not YT-QSEP™ course attendance unless the institution explicitly records that session as an official programme session.

Join Attempt ≠ Attendance Confirmed

Event Participation ≠ YT-QSEP™ Course Attendance

Assessment Scheme

The assessment structure is unchanged:

  • Theory Assessment / सैद्धांतिक परीक्षा30% (MCQ + scenario-based professional judgement)
  • Practical Competency / प्रायोगिक दक्षता30% (Live observation checklist — qualitative ratings)
  • Case Audit / केस-आधारित सुरक्षा व गुणवत्ता ऑडिट20% (Recognize → Screen → Modify → Monitor → Document → Refer)
  • Capstone Defence / Viva / मास्टर कैपस्टोन व मौखिक रक्षा10% (YP-CAP 08 weighted rubric)
  • Reflective Journal / स्वाध्याय एवं आत्म-समीक्षा जर्नल10% (YPCF-LOG 01 guided entries)

Total 100%. Component and overall pass marks: 70% / 70%.

  • Theory Examination: वस्तुनिष्ठ (MCQ) + संचित लघु उत्तरीय प्रश्न. Pass mark 70%.
  • Practicum & Mock Teaching: लाइव मॉक क्लास, अलाइनमेंट व प्रॉप्स सिमुलेशन. Pass mark 70%.

  • Self-study & Self-review Journal: YPCF-LOG 01 मार्गदर्शित स्वाध्याय प्रविष्टियाँ. Pass mark 70%.

YT-QSEP™ is an advanced CPD/CEP programme. This assessment module does not itself constitute a degree, licence, NSQF qualification, medical diagnosis or medical treatment system.

Professional Safety Requirements

Portfolio / Dossier Requirements

The professional dossier is maintained under Portfolio. Track A YAP-HTP forms and YP-CAP 08 must be completed on this device as required by the existing portfolio completeness gate.

  • YAP-HTP-01Health Pre-Screening & Readiness Form
  • YAP-HTP-02Instructor Assessment & Objective Risk Matrix
  • YAP-HTP-03Participant Progress Record Register
  • YAP-HTP-04Medical Clearance & Referral Proforma

Open Portfolio.

YAP-HTP Requirements

YAP-HTP (Health Pre-Screening & Readiness) forms YAP-HTP-01 to YAP-HTP-05 are mandatory professional-safety records. They support screening, risk flags, progress logging, referral and incident follow-up. They are not a medical diagnosis.

STCP Requirements

STCP (Safe Touch & Consent Protocol) completion is a published competency gate. Attest only from the institutional STCP record. Hands-off teaching and consent boundaries remain in force for in-person and tele-yoga delivery.

CPR / Emergency Preparedness Requirements

CPR / Emergency Action Plan (EAP) awareness and first-aid awareness are completed within institutional scope. This portal does not itself issue a CPR licence or a statutory first-aid certificate.

Capstone / Case-Based Requirements

Master Capstone / viva uses YP-CAP 08. Case-based safety and quality audit uses the published case-audit component (20%). Capstone defence remains a separate gate with a 70% minimum.

Reflective Journal

The Reflective Journal (YPCF-LOG 01) is 10% of the assessment scheme. A minimum of 1 guided entry is required before the journal component may be marked complete.

Assessment Readiness

Assessment readiness is calculated from existing assessment, dossier and gate logic. Payment, event registration, a Meet join attempt, or a Professional Record entry does not auto-unlock readiness.

Open Assessment.
