A Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) was signed on 21 March 2025, between the Green
Bhutan Corporation Limited (GBCL) and the Rural Development Training Centre (RDTC),
Department of Workforce Planning and Skills Development, Ministry of Education and Skills
Development, aiming to enhance practical training opportunities for trainees pursuing careers in
landscape development. Under this agreement, RDTC trainees will gain hands-on experience in
real-world projects managed by GBCL, bridging the gap between academic learning and
industry requirements.
The MoU provides a structured training program that the trainees would participate in current
landscaping projects, acquiring insights into modern techniques, project management, and
sustainable practices. GBCL will provide mentorship, supervision, and hands-on learning
opportunities to ensure that trainees develop competencies that meet industry standards.
This initiative aligns with the broader objectives of the ministry in promoting vocational training
and skill enhancement, ultimately contributing to the national agenda of youth empowerment and
employment creation.
This collaboration is expected to elevate the quality of services in the landscaping sector while
promoting cultural understanding and academic cooperation between the two agencies.
