Skill training

Saturday, 3 November 2007


The government needs to set up skill training centres throughout the country, at its own cost, to train as many people as possible in diverse skills. The establishment of such institutions should be viewed as investment to get, in the long run, returns higher than the expenditure involved in building and running them.
Admission to these training centres should be free of charge on the condition that the traineers will repay the costs once they get employment. Neither the trainer nor the trainee stands to lose from such an arrangement. It can rapidly raise trained manpower for the country's own use as well as the overseas markets. It will enable Bangladesh to send more and more trained manpower abroad than now and the increasing number going plus their skill will mean higher remittance flow.
