iPATE 2020|CII iPATE Exam 2020–Registration, Exam Date, Syllabus, Preparation details for Food Technologists
CII ( Confederation of Indian Industry) has launched its portal for the upcoming exam iPATE 2020.
iPATE stands for Industrial Proficiency Aptitude Test for Engineers. Only engineering graduates or engineering students in the final year are eligible to apply.
iPATE is an Online Competitive Examination to screen Technical Talent on PAN India basis for CII Member Companies to recruit.
You can apply via the link www.iPATE.in
It will act as a bridge between the industries and the graduate students as a resourceful asset for the job.
Difference between iPATE and GATE
GATE exam focusses on General Aptitude along with the engineering subjects related to the graduation subjects.
Whereas, iPATE exam also includes-
