FAISALABAD. Corporate Farming Society (CFS) has donated land measuring 6 kanals for the establishment of Vocational Training Institute (VTI), which is expected to become Functional from July this year .
In this connection a special function was held in Faisalabad Chamber of Commerce and Industry (FCCI) in which Engineer Ahmed Hassan President District Management Board of the Punjab Vocational Training Council (PVTC) and Rana Nasir Manzoor President CFS inked MOU on behalf of their respective organizations.
Addressing the function, Engineer Ahmed Hassan appreciated the cooperation of CFS and said that although government is making serious efforts to arrest the issue of unemployment but the direct involvement of NGO’s in this task will yield positive and immediate results. He said that most of the VTI’s have been established in urban areas whereas we should also take care of the swarming rural youth who are living in remote and far-flung areas. Appreciating the initiative of CFS, he told that he has directed his staff to take necessary measures to make this institute functional in the month of July. He said that initially courses of computer applications and dress making will be started, however, in later phase more courses could also be introduced.
Rana Nasir Manzoor President CFS told that the society will not only provide land but would also construct two class rooms, wash rooms, offices and boundary wall to make it fully functional without any unnecessary delay. He also thanked Engineer Ahmed Hassan who announced to provide 25 sewing machines for Gangapur VTI.
Muhammad Rafique Malik Area Manager PVTC told that there are 360 institutes in this province which are providing free technical training to deserving students in almost 100 different trades.
