All in all I want t say that Pakistani’s are changing their ways of life, clothing, business, marketing, eating, education, industry, economy, politics, tech, and in all fields of life just because of new trends. They follow new trends to meet the changes and criterion of being progressive in global world. We can say trends are here to follow for not only a change but also for development but w should adopt trends according to our social and ethical norms. We shouldn’t be bothering about new trends if not suited to us physically, economically, or socially. For instance, we shouldn’t choose a school for our kids just because in this school teachers use English medium. Because speaking English rather than our own language isn’t mean your kid’s future is bright. If it is true, then why the developed countries choose medium of native language as a preference? So we should follow new trends but should keep up to our norms and values as well

Need of practical orientation of education in Pakistan:

Need of practical orientation of education in Pakistan:

Education is largely considered formal, a concept that shapes capitalized from the top down. Formalized education flows start with an organization that offers authorization and then provides resources and groupings that meet that articulated objectives. On the other hand learning starts with individuals. The craving to learn, a natural longing, is often constructed as unceremonious learning and comes from individuals or groups with interests, who may categorize and access assets in quest of that importance.

So we can say the term education, we mean learning in the classroom to acquire certain knowledge. Education does not equal to schooling, but it indicates to what a person gains while he is in any educational institute. It is designed to transport knowledge about facts, actions, values, beliefs, principles, etc, to the students.

On the other hand training is nothing but learning by put into practice. It is a well-planned line up aimed at emergent specific skills and comprehension of the manpower. It is a common concept of human resource development where an attempt is made to recover the performance, output and capability of the existing and potential employees through learning. The curriculum is specifically designed by the organization to achieve explicit goals. So the need of practical orientation of education is solution of unemployment in Pakistan.

Functions of Education:

Ø  Impart new knowledge to learners.

Ø  Endow with the necessary environment for vigorous learning to take place.

Ø  Recognize and aid the needs of learners physically, academically.

Ø  Evaluate progress and offer support for the students.

Ø  Teaching takes place in a framework that the teacher provides with intellectual learning.

Functions of Training:

Ø  On the job skills based enlargement.

Ø  Excellence training that meets the requirements of the company.

Ø  A prospect to step up development and perk up individual performance.

Ø  A chance to provide the academically sound employee with the practical utensils for the job.

Similarities between Teaching and Training:

1.      Purpose of teaching and training is to educate another person to improve their capacity to understand key issues, gain skills and develop academically.

2.      Teaching and training aim to improve the knowledge and understanding of subjects that require learning by the pupil or trainee. 

3.      The objective is to reach inquiring minds with information for them to process.  Mature students can benefit from further growth through learning the skills the company requires through training.

4.      There are two target groups, pupils in schools and younger minds and more mature students or employees.   Sometimes the art of teaching can be counting and encompassed in the art of training. 

5.      A teacher can teach and train her pupils and the trainer can focus on practical skills as well as impart knowledge.  Therefore the target groups of learners can create use of both teaching and training. 

Differences between Education and Training:

Teaching is the enlightening of information and concepts and ideas.  It is an academic approach to learning	Training is the practical allocation of skills to perk up on the learner’s performance
Teaching usually takes place in a classroom setting	Training generally takes place in the work setting or exercise instruction field
Teachers are skilled to teach at teaching institutions	Trainers are often mentors in the work place who have the capability to offer on the employment training.
Teaching gives students  new facts	Trainers put in skills onto existing facts
Teachers give reports and feedback to learners to examine development and growth	Trainers are given feedback from the trainees to develop on their performance and growth
Teaching is restricted  in its focus	Training will center on detailed skills.
Education is to enquire theoretical knowledge	Training is refers to inculcating precise skills in an individual.
Education prepares a individual for upcoming job and challenges.	Conversely, The training prepares a person for the nearby job.
Education, aimed at to develop a sense of interpretation and judgment	As opposed to, the purpose of training is to improve the performance and output of employees.
Education, teaches about the universal or general concepts.	Unlike during training, an individual learns, how to do a specific or definite task

Literacy rate in Pakistan:

According to recent research Pakistan’s overall literacy rate remains stagnant at 58% with literacy rate of males 70% and 48 % of females, as due to the residents and accommodation survey, the Pakistan communal and Living Standards extent was not carried out for 2017-18. According to the Pakistan Economic Survey, 2017-2018, the literacy rate for whole Pakistan, includes ten years old and above is 58 %t. The countrywide net enrollment for prime level for overall Pakistan stand at 54% while Punjab leading the rest with 59 %, followed by Khyber Pakhtunkhwa with 53%, Sindh by 48% and Balochistan 33%.

Pakistan Unemployment Rate:

Unemployment Rate in Pakistan remained same at 5.90% in 2017 from 5.90% in 2016. Unemployment Rate in Pakistan averaged 5.49 %t from 1985 until 2017, reached at 7.80 %in 2002 and a record near to the ground of 3.10% in 1987.

Causes of Unemployment in Pakistan:

There is bounty of causes or in other words reasons for unemployment. The education system in Pakistan has been in point of fact poor since the foundation of Pakistan. Unfortunately any government since independence takes striking steps to make the education system healthier. Education system in Pakistan is unstable. It has been seen even talented students left study due to injustice and prejudice of system. You will observe many technical educational institutions are being found which are only selling degrees because technical education which is being given in these institutions has no worth, therefore people are wondering about for jobs due to be deficient of experience and  skills

Solution of Unemployment in Pakistan:

Without qualitative change in the policies, procedures and practices of the present structure of education, we cannot anticipate for actual growth in psycho-social as well as socioeconomic realms. Identification of unusual talent and skill should be endeavored through our education. We need to comprehend the significance of education for development and prosperity. In today’s challenging world, we need to act swiftly to make up for the lost opportunities. Here are some solutions accordingly:

1.      The first thing to do to decrease unemployment in Pakistan is the proper planning by the government of Pakistan.

2.      The education system of Pakistan should be identical and organized.

3.      Well recognized training and technical institutions are need to be established where skills programs are presented.

4.      Retirement age should be at least 55 years.

5.      Eradicate energy crisis so that investor comes to Pakistan thus job placement will robotically be created.

6.      There should be peace and serenity across the country so foreigners will not hesitate to come and to invest in Pakistan.

7.      The agriculture sector should be urbanized and developed.

8.      Jobs should be given entirely on intrinsic worth and merit.

9.      Persuade multinational companies to trade in Pakistan.

10.  Family planning centers should be opened to manage and control the over flow population.

E-rozgar is the best example of unemployment solution:

Chief Minister Punjab has determined to launch E-Rozgaar centers in 36 districts of Punjab to give training to potential freelancers and improve their professional capabilities. Through this initiative Government of Punjab will support the youth in earning reasonable and sustainable income. One of the chief objectives of this venture is to offer training opportunities to youth for self-employment via internet based freelancing.

Conclusion:

On the whole we can say Teaching and Training go hand in hand on many ways and occasions.  Most people perceive teaching as the act of imparting knowledge to young minds and training the contribution in skills based learning and practice.  However, teaching can apply at any age and training can be a skill leant from first to last teaching at any level.  Teaching, as a form of education, is more intellectual and academic and knowledge based while training is more convenient, practical and skills based or job focused.  Teaching is a profession and teachers are trained to teach core curriculum as well as motivate learning through a explicit environment.  Training’s focus is on acquiring a skill or learning a definite job.  It also applies to improving one’s strength or prowess at a particular sport through training with practical and diet.

Training thus helps in imparting job-related skills in the recruits and individuals so that they can do the job professionally and productively. Training can be on-the-job or off-the-job, paid or unpaid, part time or full time, depending on the agreement with the company or employer. At the end of the program, the individuals are tested by observing, what they learned during training. We can describe our topic in one line as under:

“Education is what people do to you. Learning is what you do for yourself”

What I can say is that after sixteen years of education, I have become strongly convinced that there is a paradigm shift underway. One in which technology is acting as a catalyst and vehicle for an explosion in the construction and publication of free learning resources. There is a natural divide appearing — with different stops on the means to education and learning. So we need education based learning or training which will help us in decreasing unemployment rate in our country.
