The University of Baltistan, in collaboration with the Aga Khan Rural Support Programme (AKRSP), organised a four-day training programme under the Career Advancement through Readiness and Employment (CARE) initiative for final-year students.
Organised under the GAC-funded BEST4WEER project, this cohort included 76 students from various departments of the University of Baltistan who were trained by faculty members that had earlier completed Training of Trainers-ToT under the CARE framework.




The programme focused on developing essential competencies such as career planning, adaptability, communication, and problem-solving, equipping participants to navigate the job market and explore opportunities in emerging sectors.
The closing ceremony was graced by Vice-Chancellor Prof. Dr Abdul Mateen and other university officials. In his address, Prof. Dr Mateen expressed appreciation for AKRSPโs continued commitment to youth development, acknowledging the significant impact of the programme on UOB students and its tailored approach to meeting their unique needs.
