Virtual Labs project is an initiative of the Ministry of Human Resource Development (MHRD), Government of India under the aegis of National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). This project is a consortium activity of twelve participating institutes and IIT Delhi is a coordinating institute. It is a paradigm shift in ICT-based education. For the first time, such an initiative has been taken-up in remote‐experimentation. Under the Virtual Labs project, over 100 Virtual Labs consisting of approximately 700+ web-enabled experiments were designed for remote-operation and viewing. The intended beneficiaries of the projects are:

• All students and Faculty Members of Science and Engineering Colleges who do not have access to good lab‐facilities and/or instruments.
• High‐school students, whose inquisitiveness will be triggered, possibly motivating them to take up higher‐studies. Researchers in different institutes who can collaborate and share resources.
• Different engineering colleges who can benefit from the content and related teaching resources. Virtual Labs do not require any additional infrastructural setup for conducting experiments at user premises. The simulations-based experiments can be accessed remotely via internet. https://www.vlab.co.in/broad-area-electrical-engineering

Directorate of Technical Education and Training (DTE&T), Odisha imparts in Odisha through the vast network of Government Industrial Training Institutes and Government polytechnic functioning across the state.
The State Government has envisaged introducing Digital Content to the Government ITIs and polytechnic for classroom teaching aid and self-learning as per latest Syllabus, This App contains theory and practical subjects/Trade.
Objectives of Digital Content:
To enrich the basic knowledge of the trade concerned along with them in class theory and virtual workshop experience of the students.
To inculcate interest among the students by making learning a fun and engaging experience.
To enhance a student's classroom, laboratory, and workshop experience by diversifying learning activities through proper training.
To improve student learning outcomes both subject-specific and in a broader context. Conducting holistic training that enables teachers to integrate the technology into their classrooms, laboratories, and workshops.
Visual Learning Solution (VLS) for Trade Theory:
VLS is envisaged both as an effective teaching-aid and self-learning tool, enhancing the Skill Development and Employability through a better understanding of Engineering Fundamentals & concepts with visual 3D demonstrations of Industry Examples and real-life applications along with 2D Pictures and Texts and thus establish Meaningful Gen-Next Vocational Education producing adequate availability of knowledgeable resources in the Core subjects.
Virtual Lab (VLAB) Solution for Trade Practical: VLAB experiment is set up in the remote laboratory for users to access through the Internet at any time and any place. Virtual Lab will be built using 3D models wherever applicable. Look and feel like a real Lab:
