PPEC focuses on competency-based education. Our diplomas are awarded based on a candidate's demonstrated mastery of skills in a trade proficiency test, not just on academic performance. We also offer flexible learning pathways, including Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL), for experienced professionals.
Yes, our professional diplomas and certificates are designed in accordance with national occupational skills standards. They are widely recognized by employers in Pakistan and are a valuable asset for career advancement and securing employment.
We offer a diverse range of professional diplomas and certificates, from short-term courses (3-month, 6-month) to longer diplomas (1-year, 2-year, 3-year). Our programs span various fields, including Information Technology, Business & Management, Health Sciences, and more.
To apply, you must register through one of our officially affiliated institutes. We do not have our own training centers; instead, we partner with a network of credible institutions that deliver our training programs. Please contact us for a list of our affiliated institutes in your area.
RPL is a pathway for individuals with significant work experience but no formal qualification. We assess your skills and, if you successfully pass a trade proficiency test, you can be awarded a professional diploma or certificate based on your on-the-job competency.
Course durations vary. We offer short-term courses (1, 3 or 6 months) and long-term professional diplomas (1, 2, or 3 years). The specific duration depends on the course you choose.

The diploma includes the candidate's name, father's name, registration number, affiliated institute, course name, and a statement certifying that the candidate has passed the trade proficiency test in accordance with national occupational skills standards. It also specifies the mode of study (Regular, RPL, or research-based).
In the event of a lost diploma, please contact our head office with your details. We have a procedure for issuing a duplicate diploma after verification of your original record and payment of the required fee.
While we do not guarantee job placement, our focus on industry-relevant, practical skills significantly enhances the employability of our graduates. Many of our affiliated institutes have links to local industries, which can assist in job-seeking.
