Sindh gets first-ever Sino-Pak International College

Published

KARACHI: With the untiring efforts by the authorities particularly by the Managing Director of the Sindh Technical and Vocational Training Authority (STEVTA), Dr Ghulam Mustafa Suhag, the Sindh province has got first-ever Sino-Pak International College under “CCTE” model as a four-party cooperation.

The agreement of joint vocational and technical education training project between China and Pakistan was signed in November 2021.

“CCTE”, short for “China-Pakistan Dual Diploma/Degree & China-Pakistan Cooperation, Chinese Language Courses & Chinese Commercial Cultural Courses, Technical Education Subjects & Technology in Education and Further Education & Employment” , is a model developed by Tang International Education Group.

The Sino-Pak International College is the first branch set up by a Chinese vocational college in Sindh. In the next step, it will upgrade the curriculum with Pakistani partners. About 25 students in computer technology will be recruited while the students will learn in Pakistan for the first two years and in China in the third year, according to Dr Mustafa Suhag.

According to MD STEVTA, the multiple CPEC projects in Sindh have resulted in a deficiency of a large number of talents with technical skills, which is far beyond what local vocational institutions can provide.

He anticipates more joint education programs under “CCTE” model to be launched in the province, which will provide more employment opportunities to the youth in the province and cultivate talent that can meet the requirements of local enterprises including the Chinese ones.

Mr Suhag termed the program a platform for people-to-people connection between the people of two brotherly countries.
