115 students complete career training at Lalmatia Govt Mohila College

A total of 115 students have completed training at a National University-backed career centre at Lalmatia Government Mohila College.

NU, with support from non-profit BYLC, established the first Career Centre among its affiliated colleges at Lalmatia Government Mohila College in August 2025 with a view to developing the skills, confidence, and leadership capabilities the students need to prepare for their careers.

The 115 graduates received their certificates at a ceremony held at the Lalmatia Government Mohila College auditorium on Monday, said a press release.

Speaking as the chief guest at the certification awarding ceremony, National University Vice-Chancellor Professor Dr ASM Amanullah said, “BYLC signed the first memorandum of understanding with National University. That journey has now led to more than 200 MoUs. We must reach educational institutions in rural and remote areas, where much potential remains hidden due to a lack of opportunities.”

He further stated that Career Centers would not be limited to preparing students for employment. They would also play an effective role in developing students’ communication skills, language proficiency, leadership, teamwork, problem-solving abilities, creativity, and other essential competencies.

The Vice-Chancellor presented certificates to the students who completed the training.

Also present at the event were Alexandra Khlevnoy, first secretary of the Russian Embassy in Dhaka and director of the Russian House; Mohammad Habibullah Tamim, acting in-charge and senior manager at BYLC; Professor Sultana Mahmuda Yasmin, principal of Lalmatia Government Mohila College; Dr Bilkis Begum, vice principal of the college; Raz Bin Kashem, director of the International Desk at National University; senior BYLC officials; teachers and students of the college; and invited guests.

The Career Center functions under the National University Employability Reform Initiative (NUERI), a joint initiative of Bangladesh Youth Leadership Center (BYLC), National University, and Lalmatia Government Mohila College.
