Bangladesh is a country having an area of about 1,47,570 square kilometers. It is burdened with about 150 million people. So Bangladesh is a densely populated country. As such population problem is by far, a burning question of Bangladesh. Over-population adversely affects the economic development and progress of a country. It creates problems of foods, communication, education, housing, health, sanitation, employment etc. But now-a-days over-population is not our curse; also it is a main resource of our country. If we can provide training of our unskilled people through technical (vocational) courses, we may convert them into skilled workers and solve the unemployment problem and earn foreign currency also.

Bangladesh Technical Education Board is authorized by parliament of our country to introduce, control and develop technical (vocational) curriculum. At present professional computer training is essential for enriching our manpower from every corners of Bangladesh. We need 5000 Hardware/Network professionals every year for fulfill the demands in our IT sector in Bangladesh and skilled manpower for overseas. In this regard BTEB has approved a short course on Computer Hardware and Networking.
