A major step towards transforming Punjab’s TVET sector and connecting our youth with global opportunities under the vision of Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz Sharif. @MaryamNSharif

Punjab is moving forward with international accreditation and certification pathways for 20,000 learners across TEVTA and PVTC and PSDF partners , through our partnership with UKQA and SIAS.

TEVTA
• 10,672 learners
• 26 programmes
• 25 training centres
• International accreditation/certification pathways through SIAS and EAL and UKQA .

PVTC
• 6,437 learners proposed for international assessment/certification

Under the agreement, the initiative provides two important pathways: international review and accreditation of Punjab/PBTE qualifications, including jointly badged credentials, and access to SIAS-owned Ofqual-regulated qualifications where appropriate.

This is not simply about issuing international certificates. We are working to map Punjab’s curricula and learning outcomes against international standards, strengthen assessment and quality assurance, build institutional capacity and give our youth qualifications valued by employers internationally.

Grateful to UKQA, Steve Smith, Mike Dawe and the SIAS team for their partnership in this transformation.

Train in Punjab. Certify to international standards. Employ globally.

امن و امان کا معیار صرف بیانیہ نہیں، نتائج ہوتے ہیں۔

وزیراعلیٰ پنجاب محترمہ مریم نواز شریف کی قیادت میں پنجاب پولیس، Crime Control Department (CCD) اور دیگر قانون نافذ کرنے والے اداروں کی مؤثر کارروائیوں سے لاہور میں ڈکیتی، راہزنی، گاڑی و موٹر سائیکل چھیننے سمیت سنگین جرائم میں نمایاں کمی آئی ہے۔

دلچسپ بات یہ ہے کہ عوامی تاثر پر مبنی Numbeo کے مطابق لاہور کا Crime Index 36.9 جبکہ لندن کا 55.3 ہے، اور Safety Index لاہور کا 63.1 جبکہ لندن کا 44.7 ہے۔

ایک محفوظ پنجاب، وزیراعلیٰ پنجاب محترمہ مریم نواز شریف @MaryamNSharif کا عزم اور ہماری اولین ترجیح ہے
