ISLAMABAD: The Government of Pakistan, through a special initiative of the Prime Minister, has launched a programme offering free three to six-month vocational training courses for children of overseas Pakistanis, although adults are also free to join.

The scheme is a joint effort of the National Vocational and Technical Training Commission (NAVTTC) and the Overseas Pakistanis Foundation (OPF).

  • Welding
  • Other technical and vocational disciplines

Eligibility Criteria for Courses

Applicants must have completed matriculation (Grade 10) or higher education to be eligible for enrollment. The program targets individuals in the 18 to 40 years age bracket, ensuring that both young adults and mid-career individuals can benefit from skill development opportunities.

The last date to apply is 30 September 2025. Applicants are advised to register early to secure a spot, as seats are limited and demand is expected to be high.
