Our Traditional Education System, Role of PIAIC and Bright Future of Pakistan

Drawbacks of Our Education System:
We as citizens' of Pakistan spent almost 70 years of a life as nation. But, even then out educational system is declining with the passage of every day. Our traditional education system is just to hand over degree in students' hands after spending sixteen precious years of energetic life of our youth and huge amount on account of heavy fee and other charges. Parents' think that these prestigious educational institutions have equipped their children with high quality education and skills to make them successful partner of the society, whereas in contrast, their children are handed over just bookish knowledge with piece of high quality decent paper affixed their names' over it and nothing else.

If we compare our educational standard with our neighboring countries, it seems crystal clear that we are lacking the standard shamefully. Internationally none of our university except two or three have any worth. Therefore, majority of our graduate and master level degree-holders secure just any clerical job. This increased unemployment in our country and our youth started to involve in illegal and immoral activities.

PIAIC imparting High Tech Skills:
In this frustrating environment, PIAIC emerged as a flash light of "hope". Saylani Welfare Trust took a revolutionary step under the supervision of President of Pakistan Dr. Arif Alvi to impart skill based education to the students and our youth under the program titled "Presidential Initiative for Artificial Intelligence & Computing (PIAIC)".



PIAIC arrived with the mission to reshape Pakistan by revolutionizing education, research and business by adopting latest and cutting-edge technologies.  It's committed to take country with the pace of 4IR (forth industrial revolution) by making Pakistan a global hub for Artificial Intelligence, Data Science, Cloud native Computing, Block chain and Internet of Things (IoT).



Entry Test at Karachi

The PIAIC has earmarked number of successes since its induction.  It started first batch in Karachi in mid-2019. since that, it has started quite a number of fresh batches in major cities of Islamabad, Faisalabad and Sialkot.

These days, it started registration of its new batches in Karachi, Lahore and Islamabad as well after completing first batches. PIAIC offers courses through onsite as well as online classes by using latest testing and examination methodologies. Prospect students and youth is advised to complete registration process at PIAIC official website.

PIAIC is busy in training the youth ranging from matric certificate holder to masters / PhD degree holders. It's students are fueling the energy to pave the way of success and take Pakistan into the era of 4th industrial revolution proudly.
PIAIC Website Launching Event

Projected Future of Pakistan:
Prior to the emergence of PIAIC, Pakistan was lagging behind in the field of IT development/exports. It was even not capable to meet the local market needs.  Pakistan couldn't even compete the skilled manpower of our neighboring countries like India and Bangladesh in IT exports and freelance markets. Thus, our youth was wasting time in using social media and 4G Internets for just leisure purpose and not to earn for themselves for Pakistan as well.

In view of above, with the emergence of PIAIC and in addition to this, with the recent steps of Federal Govt to equip the youth by launching "Hunarmand Naujwan", it seems that our youth will perfectly compete in the international market and will secure a handful foreign exchange by making international standard IT exports and freelancing in the fields of artificial intelligence, machine learning, deep learning, data science, cloud-based computing, internet of things and 5G / Software Defined Networking (SDN) Technologies.
