Introduction about Vocational Trainings

Vocational training is used to prepare for a certain trades or crafts. Decades ago, it used to refer solely to such fields are welding and automotive service, but today it can range from hand trades to retail to tourism management. Vocational training is education only in the type of trade a person wants to pursue, forgoing traditional academics.

Pakistan has shown a remarkable progress in the sector of education in the recent times but vocational training courses are still not regulated in many schools. This has resulted into a major gap between the supply and demand of skilled manpower in the region. The shortage of skilled workforce has led to increase in number of unemployment labour in the country.

In Pakistan, vocational training is provided as a part-time and full-time basis. Full time training is typically provided by the Industrial Training Institutes and we are working as Industrial Training Institute with the name of KCDC Textile and Vocational Institute while the part time programs are offered to the students under the Board of Technical Education.
