Background

Bangladesh is a small country with a large population of 160 million. This provides a huge potential for further
economic development, but progress is hindered by three main factors: Poor infrastructure, Lack of quality
training and the Lack of Skilled workforces. Lack of skills reflects in the countries high rate of unemployment
and it also underemployment. Bangladesh has more than 10 million migrant workers, but most of them are
low skilled, making money in low paid jobs. Bureau of Manpower, Employment & Training (BMET) operates
104 Technical Training Centre (TTC), 6 Institutes of Marine Technologies which have focus on skills
development training. Moreover, TTCs will be established in every Upazila in the near future. TVET teachers
are the prime movers of skills development training .To be able to produce trainees equipped with technical
skill that could meet the skill requirements, there is a need to improve and enhance the pedagogical and
technical skills of TVET teachers. With the view of updating the knowledge and skills of TVET teachers in
Technical & Vocational Institutions, Dhaka Technical Teachers’ Training Institute (DTTTI) can play a vital role.
For this reason the Ministry of Expatriates’ Welfare and Overseas Employment established Dhaka Technical
Teachers’ Training Institute (DTTTI) with the assistance of Islamic Development Bank (IDB).
