MESSAGE FROM CEO
Welcome to Royal Institutes of Practical Learning (SMC- Pvt.) Limited. At RIPL we believe in the transformative power of education. With four esteemed institutions under our umbrella, we are dedicated to nurturing minds, fostering innovation, and creating future leaders. Our institutions offer diverse learning experiences that cater to students of all disciplines and stages in their educational journey.
I grew up in Peshawar, travelled in Pakistan and abroad, as well as remained involved in our family business management and development. I always wondered that how can we bridge gaps between “haves and have nots” in our communities to those who are less fortunate and down trodden because they lack resources and cannot develop along with other fellow citizens.
Eventually, I was able to take this initiative and feel that if our people get opportunities to stand up on their own feet and make a decent living due to our sincere efforts then it will be a little contribution towards human resource development in our society.
After teaming up with “think-alikes” we acquired four running different institutes to become parts of RIPL. Although challenging to work in growing inflation, we are making a progress towards our objectives. As we all realize that our education system revolves aground issuing certificates, diplomas and degrees but lacks in providing practical work or hands on training which is an integral part of skills development in our students.
At RIPL we are certain that with the grace of Allah Almighty our present institutes and future additions with become symbols of trained and skilled workforce for national and international job markets. Insha-Allah
Labour market
The global labour market displays divergent trends between developed and developing countries post-pandemic. Developed countries experienced a robust recovery with low unemployment rates, notably 3.7% in the US and 6.0% in the EU in 2023, coupled with rising nominal wages and narrowing wage inequality. However, real income losses and labour shortages pose challenges.
In contrast, developing countries show mixed progress; while nations like China, Brazil, Türkiye, and Russia report declining unemployment, issues like informal employment, gender gaps, and high youth unemployment persist. Globally, the decline in female labor force participation to 47.2% in 2023 (compared to 48.1% in 2013) and the high NEET rate (not in employment, education or training) of 23.5% among youth highlight enduring challenges in gender equality and youth employment.
Since the introduction of ChatGPT in November 2022 there has been significant advancement in artificial intelligence. Within six months ChatGPT’s introduction, onethird of firms worldwide were using generative AI for at least one function, and about 40% planned to expand AI investment. The rapid adoption of AI is feared to exacerbate income inequalities. AI could reduce demand for low-skilled jobs, disproportionately impacting women and lower-income countries. In the US, women, who dominate clerical work, are at higher risk of job displacement by AI. Also, there’s a significant gender gap in AI professions.
