What are Technical Colleges*
The Bangladesh Government is funding Technical College across
Bangladesh in areas where there are skills needs, a high youth
population and a strong industry base. Technical Colleges
provide young Bangladeshis with the opportunity to commence
their training in a traditional trade through an Apprenticeship
while at the same time completing academic subjects leading to a
year to a year 12 certificates.
What is the advantage of a Technical College
A great way to start training for a career before you leave
school is with an Apprenticeship. You can get training, work
experience, a nationally recognized qualification and earn a
wage.
Australian Technical Colleges provide you with the opportunity
to commence training in a traditional trade through an
Apprenticeship while at the same time studying academic
subjects, relevant to trade careers and leading to a year 12
certificates.
About the Technical Colleges
The principal objective of the Bangladesh Colleges is to address
the current and future skills needs of the Bangladesh economy
through the achievement of a number of key goals, such as:
* promoting pride and excellence
in trade skills training for young
people;
* providing skills and education in
a flexible learning environment;
* having an industry-led governing
body for each Technical College
which sets out its strategic
directions and performance objectives;
* Providing trade training that is relevant to industry and that
leads to nationally recognized qualifications through
Apprenticeships, and providing academic and vocational and
technical education which is relevant to trade careers and leads
to a year 12 certificate.
A new choice for young people
Technical Colleges are for students in year 11 and 12. Students
enter into an School based Apprenticeship. Which leads to a
nationally recognized qualification; study academic subjects,
leading to a Year 12 certificate; and also gain IT,
employability and business skills, enabling them to run their
own business if they desire. they can also keep the option to go
on to further study at university.
The Colleges provide an incentive for more students to stay on
at school and encourage more students to pursue a trade
qualification. They expand student choice by providing another
pathway to a career involving trades. Facilities and educational
services offered by the College are high quality, establishing
them as centres of excellence in trade training, thereby raising
the profile of vocational and technical education in schools and
strengthening the training system as a whole. The College play
an important role in expanding School based Apprenticeships,
particularly in the traditional trade's areas.
A real job
The Technical College experience offers students much more
that just a pathway towards nationally recognized trade
qualifications. Students study relevant academic subjects,
ones that ensure that the link between academia and the real
world is recognized, they gain hands on skills in a real
workplace
environment, real working hours and conditions and gain skills
and knowledge that allows them to start a rewarding career in
the trades and eventually run their own business.
How are Technical Colleges different from other schools and registered
training organizations*
Technical Colleges are specialist schools with high quality
facilities providing tuition for years 11 and 12 students where
all students will undertake academic studies relevant to a
career in the trades and trades-related vocational course, as
well as developing employability and entrepreneurial skills.
This combination, together with employment as School-based
Apprentices, makes it essential that delivery of services to the
students is through flexible delivery arrangements and
timetables.
Industry play a pivotal role in both leading and supporting the
Colleges, particularly through the governance and the employment
of the students as a School based Apprentice.
The College provides students with the opportunity to pursue
trades training, leading to a nationally accredited
qualification, as well as complete their senior secondary
education. Students at the Colleges will have the opportunity to
commence a School based Apprenticeship. The Technical Colleges
operate autonomously, with a governing body chaired by a local
business or industry representative and involving local
communities.

wear. Only students who are dressed in complete and correctly
worn uniform will be permitted to attend class.

documentation. The test paper for a formal test at any level
includes details as for Assignment Title Page.
