Chief Adviser Professor Muhammad Yunus spoke at a meeting held at his Tejgaon office in Dhaka today. "There is significant demand for Bangladeshi workers in the global markets, but the reputation of the country's workforce is being undermined due to fraud and forgery related to skills training certificates," he said. Issuing a warning that if employers lose trust, all skill development initiatives would fail, Prof Yunus said, "All these frauds must be stopped". Expressing optimism, the Chief Adviser said the NSDA's initiative to introduce a unified standard certification system across all training institutions would play a crucial role in preventing such fraud. The Governing Body approved the long-term goals of the NSDA to address global challenges following Bangladesh's graduation from Least Developed Country (LDC) status.
