Dr. Siddiqui revealed that these campuses would offer short courses focused on skills that lead to employment, targeting the youth in Sindh. He dismissed the notion that the federal education ministry’s operations were confined to Islamabad, stating that its responsibilities extend nationwide.
Furthermore, he announced an increase in the number of courses and centers under the National Vocational and Technical Training Commission (NAVTTC). The ministry is also collaborating with several national and international institutions, such as Huawei and Microsoft, to provide training programs for Pakistani youth.
