We as a nation have to focus on future IT skills required to flourish in this new digitalized, interconnected global marketplace. The world is moving very fast towards an increasingly digitalized global village, with an ever-growing reliance on advanced technologies. Our proficiency with such technologies and processes will help us diversify our economy, attract new investments, and increase our productivity. DigiPAKISTAN is a National Skills Development Program aimed at preparing our youth for the challenges of the fast-changing job market. A national workforce equipped with world-class, future-proof skills and attitudes will underpin the delivery of greater economic and social value for generations to come.
It is a matter of great privilege and pride that DigiPAKISTAN has accepted the responsibility to equip our youth with the latest skills in cutting-edge technologies to grab their place at leading positions in the digitized world. This National Skills Development Initiative will identify the bundles of skills, abilities, and knowledge that are most likely to be important in the near future, as well as the skills investments that will have the greatest impact on occupational demand.
I feel very proud and satisfied that we have initiated our part in nation-building, but it will reach its pinnacle with your support and contributions. So don't wait and join the just cause of driving our youth through the hardships of unemployment towards a prosperous, self-sustaining, and dignified future. May Allah Almighty accept our endeavors and guide us towards the right path. Ameen. DigiPAKISTAN Zindabad, Pakistan Paindabad.
