Youths contribute to flourishing country’s ICT sector
RAJSHAHI, May 26, 2019 (BSS) – Young generation has been contributing to
flourishing country’s Information and Communication Technology (ICT) sector,
brightening the image of the country at home and abroad by showing laudable
performance in this sector.
The promising youths are not only contributing a lot towards taking forward
the ICT sector but also supplementing the government efforts of building
digital Bangladesh after the best uses of their competence.
The observation came at the closing and certificate-giving ceremony of a
12-day ICT-based basic teachers training course at Rajshahi Teachers Training
College (RTTC) here yesterday afternoon.
RTTC organized the course in association with ‘Education Introduction in
Secondary and Higher Secondary Levels through ICT Project (Second Phase)’.
More than 210 teachers from different government and non-government
school, madrasha and college in the region took part in the training course
in seven batches.
Fazley Hossain Badsha, MP, addressed the ceremony as the chief guest with
RTTC principal Prof Shawkat Ali Khan in the chair.
Assistant Director of the project Farida Yeasmin and assistant professor
of the college Dr Afroza Naznin also spoke.
Lawmaker Badsha said the ICT is helping to reduce unemployment problems in
the country and many youths have become self-dependent through outsourcing.
He said the government has been extending all support to youths so that
they could build themselves competent.
Badsha also said the government has been imparting ICT training to the
teachers with providing laptops and multimedia projectors to all the primary
and high schools and colleges to make the multimedia classrooms more
effective and enriched.
He told the meeting that Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib hi-tech park is being
installed here that will play a vital role in boosting the current economic
activities of the region by creating new technology-based employment.
The park will create new employment for more than 14,000 youths both male
and female here, he added.
