The Export Promotion Bureau (EPB) of Bangladesh signed separate agreements with the Bangladesh Garment Manufacturers and Exporters Association (BGMEA), the Bangladesh Knitwear Manufacturers and Exporters Association (BKMEA), and the BGMEA University of Fashion and Technology (BUFT) on Thursday to strengthen skills in the country’s ready-made garment industry. The signing ceremony, chaired by EPB Vice-Chairman and CEO Mohammad Hasan Arif, took place at the EPB conference room. The three-year training program, covering fiscal years 2026–27 to 2028–29, aims to train 22,815 workers, employees, and mid-level officials.
Under the program, BGMEA and BKMEA will organize five-day training sessions for workers, while BUFT will conduct six-month postgraduate diploma courses for officials. The initiative will be financed by the Ministry of Commerce’s training fund. The program seeks to improve productivity, promote modern machinery use, ensure compliance with international standards, and raise awareness of EU and other export market requirements. BGMEA and BKMEA representatives emphasized updating training modules to include circular machinery and compliance topics.
EPB’s vice-chairman stressed the need for modernizing training modules, strengthening monitoring, and evaluating how the acquired knowledge benefits the garment sector. The program is expected to enhance modernization and export competitiveness in Bangladesh’s apparel industry.
