Islamabad Police Launches Free Training Courses for Citizens

The Islamabad Police have launched Batch-III of the Prime Minister’s Youth Skills Development Programme, providing free professional training for young adults aged 18 to 40 as part of a proactive effort to empower youth and improve career prospects. The initiative is being conducted in collaboration with the National Vocational and Technical Training Commission (NAVTTC) and the Capital Police College ICT in Islamabad, offering participants access to high-demand skill development courses.

Training is available in a wide range of fields including Artificial Intelligence with a focus on Machine Learning and Deep Learning, Digital Marketing and SEO, Web Development, Graphic Designing and Video Editing, as well as language courses in English (IELTS/PTE B1-B2) and German (A1). For sports enthusiasts, the programme also includes specialized fitness and sports training.

Eligibility requirements vary depending on the course, with IT-related courses requiring at least an intermediate education, while other courses are open to those with matriculation. Course durations are three or six months, with residential and hands-on practical training designed to ensure participants gain job-ready skills and certification. Interested individuals can apply by contacting 0300-5213072 or visiting the Capital Police College in H-11, Islamabad. Seats are limited, emphasizing the need for early application.

The programme aims to provide youth with opportunities in modern and emerging sectors, enhance employability, and reduce idle time that could lead to social issues. Training centres in Islamabad are equipped with state-of-the-art facilities, and experienced instructors focus on practical learning and skill development. Police officials highlighted that the programme is part of a broader strategy to create employment opportunities, foster youth engagement, and strengthen community safety.

Participants have expressed enthusiasm for the programme, describing it as a source of new hope and career direction at a time when many young adults face limited options. By combining law-enforcement leadership with youth development initiatives, the Islamabad Police are setting an example of how public institutions can actively contribute to skill-building, empowerment, and employment for young citizens.
