Seeking New Horizons
Acquiring computer skills has changed Ms. Shaheen's life. Although a teacher, she did not see herself going anywhere fast. Ms. Shaheen is now able to pass on her acquired computer skills to the children at her school. More confident, she has found ways for her skills to supplement her salary.
Human Development Foundation (HDF) has arranged for many Vocational Trainings over the years that have enabled people to develop their skills. Ms. Shaheen received computer training at HDF's Vocational Training Center (VTC) in Kachhi Ittehad Colony. She is one of 6 siblings and witnessed her father toiling in the fields to provide them with their daily bread. In order to help her family Ms. Shaheen began teaching and, at present, she teaches at Perfect Public School. This is also where she was first exposed to computers. However, she was not satisfied with the standard, nor was she pleased with the content of her classes. So, she turned to HDF in order to receive comprehensive training.
In her own words, Ms. Shaheen describes her experience:
"I was an employee of Perfect Public School and they were offering Computer classes free of cost, yet I left them. I made this decision because clearly, not only the equipment but also the quality of the content of the computer courses was much better in VTC-HDF. The completion of the course has enabled me to earn a raise in my salary since I am now better able to teach children the skills that I have acquired. HDF has truly made me a different person."
