Summary
Punjab Skills Development Fund and FPCCI signed an MoU in Lahore to build industry-led training and employment pathways under the upcoming Punjab Industrial Clusters Program.
The framework ties skills programs more closely to employer demand by identifying emerging sectors, changing occupational needs and future workforce requirements, while increasing private-sector input into training design.
The partnership will channel that coordination into internships, apprenticeships, work-based learning and career exposure initiatives to improve transitions from training into jobs.
FPCCI, which represents chambers and trade bodies across 170 sectors, is also expected to help widen women's access to technical, industrial, digital and export-oriented roles.
The deal adds seminars, workshops, policy dialogue and research to support evidence-based workforce planning, with the broader aim of boosting industrial growth, exports and long-term employment in Punjab.
