Bangladesh is an over populated country, yet its population can be converted to human resources for achieving economic growth. There are many elements for human resources development (HRD), among those education could be the most important element for developing human resources. Government could correctly identify that, if education system of Bangladesh could be reformed by an effective policy we can transform this demographic burden to dividend through HRD. In this note, Bangladesh Education Policy 2010 is considered to be one of the best education policy ever promulgated. But when we analyze its practical application, there are concern on its contribution towards NHRD including its implementation process in the field. Here, a well-orchestrated education policy can play key role for developing an adaptable workforce who can effectively contribute for building a prosperous nation.

Abstract


Bangladesh is an over populated country, yet its population can be converted to human resources for achieving economic growth. There are many elements for human resources development (HRD), among those education could be the most important element for developing human resources. Government could correctly identify that, if education system of Bangladesh could be reformed by an effective policy we can transform this demographic burden to dividend through HRD. In this note, Bangladesh Education Policy 2010 is considered to be one of the best education policy ever promulgated. But when we analyze its practical application, there are concern on its contribution towards NHRD including its implementation process in the field. Here, a well-orchestrated education policy can play key role for developing an adaptable workforce who can effectively contribute for building a prosperous nation.
