This is an online learn & earn programme through which the economic independence of all the segments of society can be ensured. The most appealing features of this programme are as follows: its free; has multiple courses with complete relevance to today’s demands; comprehensive content is being delivered by competent trainers; you get professional certification on the completion of course and you just do not need go anywhere. And once you are professionally certified for a marketable skill, you can boost your financial earnings through online work right from your comfort zone.

This is a great opportunity for all us who are smartphone users to get the most out of our mobile gadgets and not just confine ourselves to phone screens for no good reason. Another initiative taken by digiskills.pk was a special informative session to not only educate but also to include differently-abled people in this unconventional program with the support of the Special Talent Exchange Program (STEP). This section of our society can be the greatest beneficiary of this programme by getting marketable skills and achieving financial independence despite any physical challenges.
