A structured competency pathway with periodic rubric evaluations, plus the completion of the recorded hours.
Where this stands legally
Offered under the applicable AICTE internship framework, where one academic credit corresponds to a minimum of 45 hours of work — which is why these hours are counted and certified. The engagement sits well inside the 9-hour day and 48-hour week ceiling of the applicable state Shops and Establishments Act, and the seventh day is a full rest day.
At a minimum of 45 hours of work per academic credit, this engagement is equivalent to roughly 23.1 credits. Your institution decides what it awards; EduRankAI records the hours and the work.
The full per-level model is published at Working Hours by Level.
