SAID PAKISTAN JOBS Project is working for the skill enhancement of the workforce in Pakistan in several growing economic sectors including agriculture, energy, construction, information technology, call centers, pharmaceuticals, garment manufacturing, carpet making, and fisheries. Preparation of standardized and tested curriculum is one of the major contributions of this project. The “Soft Skills” curriculum developed by JOBS International Private Limited (JIPL) and implemented at Sarhad University of Information & Technology (SUIT) helps students develop their “soft” employability skills in order to become more efficient and employable professionals. Soft skills are skills beyond the technical knowledge of a subject that influence the quality of professional interaction. Soft skills could include abilities such as effective communication, creativity, analytical
thinking, diplomacy, flexibility, change-readiness, and problem solving, leadership, team building, and listening skills.
