Description	Educational Qualification B.Sc./Diploma/Degree in Engineering (Grade-I Signal); Matriculation + ITI/Apprenticeship (Grade-III) RRB Technician Eligibility Criteria 2026 Anyone wondering who can apply for RRB Technician 2026 should know that eligibility depends on educational qualification, age limit, and medical standards specific to each post. The qualification requirements vary by department, and candidates must satisfy these conditions on or before the closing date, 29 July 2026, since those awaiting final results are not eligible to apply. Educational Qualification For Technician Grade-I Signal, candidates need a Bachelor of Science in Physics/Electronics/Computer Science/Information Technology/Instrumentation, a three-year diploma in Engineering, or a Degree in Engineering in these streams. For most Technician Grade-III posts, candidates need Matriculation/SSLC plus ITI from NCVT/SCVT or Matriculation/SSLC plus Course Completed Act Apprenticeship in the relevant trade (such as Fitter, Welder, Electrician, Machinist, Carpenter, or Blacksmith, depending on the post applied for).

Ex-servicemen get age relaxation equal to their length of service plus 3 years (UR/EWS), 6 years (OBC-NCL), or 8 years (SC/ST) after deducting service length from their actual age RRB Technician Selection Process 2026 Candidates often ask how RRB selects Technicians, and the answer is a three-stage process based purely on merit. The recruitment involves a Computer Based Test (CBT), Document Verification (DV), and a Medical Examination, with shortlisting at each stage determined by performance in the previous one. Computer Based Test (CBT): A single CBT of 90 minutes with 100 questions and negative marking of 1/3rd mark per wrong answer. Minimum qualifying marks are 40% (UR/EWS), 30% (OBC-NCL/SC), and 25% (ST). Document Verification (DV): Candidates are shortlisted at a 1:1 ratio against vacancies based on CBT merit, RRB-wise. Original documents must be produced; no extra time is given for missing certificates. Medical Examination (ME): Conducted by Railway Medical Authorities as per the medical standard (A3, B1, B2, or C1) prescribed for the specific post. Based on typical RRB recruitment cycles, CBT is expected a few months after the application closes, followed by DV and medical examination in subsequent phases - though exact dates will be announced on official RRB websites.Engineering Jobs RRB Technician CEN 02/2026 Apply Online The RRB Technician Apply Online link will be active from 30 June 2026 on all official RRB portals.
