Training Experience

Since 2022, I have been actively contributing as a Trainer at Chittagong Polytechnical Institute and Chittagong Women Polytechnical Institute. In these roles, I have delivered insightful and impactful training sessions on topics such as "Smart Education, Smart Bangladesh - Sheikh Hasina’s Bangladesh" and "Digital Bangladesh and Its Impact." These sessions focus on educating participants about the transformative impact of digital technologies on education and society, aligned with the vision of Sheikh Hasina for a Digital Bangladesh. I aim to equip learners with the knowledge to understand how digital advancements are reshaping various sectors and the importance of embracing technology in modern education.

Along with this, I have also served as an Adjunct Speaker at DiCT, Bangladesh Computer Council (BCC), and IEB, Chattogram since 2022. In this capacity, I conduct training sessions on Web Development and Digital Marketing. The aim of my sessions is to provide professionals with the tools and techniques required to excel in the fast-evolving digital world. By leveraging interactive discussions, practical demonstrations, and real-world applications, I ensure that the training participants not only gain theoretical knowledge but also hands-on skills that they can directly apply in their professional careers.

Both roles allow me to foster an engaging learning environment, promote knowledge sharing, and drive practical application of digital concepts, ensuring the continuous professional growth of my trainees.
