Scouts Skills, Learning and Development Centre

In January 2016 Balochistan Boy Scouts Association took an initiative and start a vocational and training centre for the youth under the name “Skills Learning, Learning and Development Centre”. This training centre offered variety of technical courses such as Computer DIT, Beautician & Make up, Sewing & Tailoring and English language courses with an aim to help and technically train the youth of different backgrounds, and fully support them through this center. Also these sort of skilled trades were introduced for youth in order to promote and provide demand driven technical education & vocational training to make them self-sufficient with the skills and abilities needed to be self-employed by not depending on others. This kind of technical education not only benefit youth to be technically proficient but also helps to increase their knowledge towards particular trade to further play their important role by fulfilling the domestic needs of the local market. To make its learning qualified this centre was also registered with “technical and Training Board, TTB” which is a body of labor and training department (Government of Balochistan). To fully attain the qualification students first have pass the Boy Scouts Exam and then they have again appear before the TTB exam board in order to have fully recognized degree. So far 263 students are studying out of which 131 recently passed their TTB (Technical Training Board) exams and are self-fulfilled to start their own work. On 29th April 2017 its annual certificate Distribution was organized at Provincial HQ (Quetta) having presence of our worthy Chief Commissioner Pakistan Boy Scouts Association Ms Rahila Hameed Durrani as Chief Guest.
