To me, the most important factor that affects the
quality of training is the attitude of institute
management and the faculty. Head of the institute
matters as he/she directs and controls the daily
activities towards achieving a goal set by the institute.
He/she takes along the entire team to work within the vision and mission statements
of KP-TEVTA. A good team headed by a dynamic Principal/leader will deliver,
even, out of scratch and vice versa. This is what I have observed/learnt over
my long career in TVET Sectors.

Notwithstanding some of the deficiencies in our existing system, we have enough resources in all Colleges/Institutes, which if utilized with prudence, can bring about a big change. It is only the matter of ownership which makes us work or not work. Our focus should be on the utilization of available resources on optimum level for ensuring a conducive Education and training environment for the students covering not only their Academic / Training requirement but their physical fitness and personal hygiene as well. Principal should be a role model for setting the attitudes of his/her team and students. We must be aware that doing a perfect job is not easy, hardship may come all along but determined people win, amidst problems, at the end.

Our society is over bulged with the youth and only we can bring a change by taking shift from traditional supply driven Education and Training to Educating & Skilling youth for Employment. The best performance indicators for an institute is to see how many of its passed outs are on job. We should re-align our institutes management by keeping track record of outgoing students by tracing their employment status and help students connect to the job/ entrepreneurial opportunities.
The students are advised to take full benefit of the time they spend in the institute and try to learn as much as possible because the time never comes back. Build your future with your own hands.
The Prophet (PBUH) said “Efforts come from me and its fulfillment from Allah: let’s try our best and do whatever we can within our capacity. Let’s put our trust in “God help those who help themselves”.
