Applications are invited for 32nd regular course in flour Milling Technology, scheduled to start on 20th August 2012 from the eligible candidates for the selection of 20 participates. The requirements for admission are as follows:
Central Food Technological Research Institute (CFTRI), the pioneering organization in Research and Development in the area of Food science and Technology and Human Resource Development. CFTRI is ISO 9001:2008 & ISO 14001:2004 Organization and ISO 17025:2005 Accredited Laboratory. As a part of human resource development, an International School of Milling Technology was established as a joint Indo-Swiss venture and Roller Flour Miller Federation of India project during 1981 to serve the needs of flour milling industry in India and other developing countries with regard to training in flour milling technology.
So far 30 regular courses in Flour Milling Technology have been completed and 31st is in progress. In these courses, 585 participants including 100 from some of the other developing countries such as Bangladesh, Cambodia, Ethiopia, Ghana, Guyana, Jordan, Kazakhstan, Kenya, Liberia, Mongolia, Nepal, Nigeria, Oman, Pakistan, The Philippines, Srilanka, Syria, Suriname, Uganda, United Arab Emirates, Vietnam, West Indies, Yemen, Zambia, have been trained. These trained personnel are serving in different roller flour mills in India and in various other countries. Since then, there have been qualitative changes in the working of these mills as per the feedback received from the milling industry.
Infrastructure Facilities
International School of Milling Technology is first of its kind in South East Asia. ISMT enjoys the facilities and expertise of CFTRI. ISMT enjoys the fully dedicated computer controlled pilot roller flour mill, where students are taught milling systems as per the international and Indian sub continental standards.
ISMT is also equipped with analytical laboratory for testing physico-chemical attributes of raw material and finished products. In addition test baking and pilot scale baking facilities are available for assessing quality of milled products.
Boarding & lodging is provided at International Hostel in campus. CFTRI is having renowned library in the field of Food Science & Technology. Library is a National Information Center for Food Science & Technology.
The theory as well as practical subjects taught at ISMT are divided into four groups namely:

(2.) Basic subjects: Physics, Chemistry & Mathematics
(3.) Applied Subjects: Mechanics, Electrical Technology-Theory and practical, Energy Management, Technical Drawing, Infestation Control, Packaging Technology, Feed Milling, Nutrition, Computer Science.
(4.) Study Tour: Study tour to various commercial Rollers Flour mills & allied industries.
Course also includes four weeks Inplant training at ISMT Mill (20 tones/day capacity) & Automatic Mill practical classes; there in each participant will be Head Miller. Diffrent Guest lectures are also arranged on various other topics. The mill has been modernized with latest machineries in cleaning and grinding sections, flour fortification and automatic flour handling and packing.
The course has been gradually updated so that it is effective and responsive to the needs of the milling industry especially in developing countries of tropical areas.
