Huawei ICT Courses Now Mandatory for FDE Students in Grades 6–10

In a significant move to strengthen digital education, the Federal Directorate of Education (FDE) has made Huawei ICT courses mandatory for students in Grades 6–10. The initiative, in partnership with Huawei Pakistan and the Ministry of Federal Education & Professional Training (MoFE&PT), is part of a nationwide push to equip 300,000 students with essential IT skills.

As part of the newly introduced Huawei ICT courses for FDE students, institutional heads have been instructed to ensure 100% student registration through a designated online portal. Each student must use a unique email ID and phone number to complete registration by May 26–27, 2025. Additionally, all students in Grades 6–10 must complete a one-hour “Basics AI” course before the start of summer vacations.

The Huawei ICT courses for FDE students are part of a broader capacity-building program, which also includes a “Train the Trainer (TTT)” initiative covering Islamabad, Gilgit-Baltistan, and Azad Jammu & Kashmir. The program aims to develop a digitalization roadmap for institutions under MoFE&PT.
