ISLAMABAD: Embassy of South Korea Minister Counsellor Kim Jim Wook called on National Vocational and Technical Training Commission (NAVTTC) Executive Director Zulfiqar Ahmad Cheema to promote linkages and partnership in technical and vocational sector between Pakistan and Korea. Cheema briefed the minister on the milestone achieved by NAVTTC in bringing a paradigm shift in technical vocational education and training (TVET) delivery in Pakistan. “We are facing certain challenges to attract young people towards technical and vocational education as the general perception of people is still focused on acquiring conventional education,” he said. The Korean minister commended the role of NAVTTC with assurances that it would provide technical assistance to boost the TVET sector of Pakistan.
