Foreign Language Training Center (FLTC) Project:



With a view to imparting training and developing communication abilities in different foreign language, Ministry of Education has launched ‘Established of Foreign Language Training Centers (FLTC)’ project. This project aims to address the human resource development efforts by providing training in different foreign language which are in demand across the global job market.

FLTC project is being implemented by the Directorate of secondary and Higher Education (DSHE) and funded by the Ministry of Education through its associate organizations. It is being implemented to transform and develop the socio-economic status especially of those being marginalized in the job market at home and abroad. It is to be mentioned that due to lack of skills and ability to communicate efficiently in foreign language, much of our workshop is being manipulated. Particularly, Bangladesh foreign wage earns are comparatively being paid less than those coming from our neighbouring countries. This is causing a significant havoc in our overall flow of remittance.




Objectives:



The training programme is designed to help acpuire the four basic language skills i.e. listening, speaking, reading and writing to those:
- Wishing to improve their foreign language skills
- Requiring the use of a foreign language in their profession.
- Preparing themselves to complete in the global job market.
The training program will enable the native speakers of Bangla to use the targeted language(S) for communication in real-life situations.
