Ans: It demands a very short span of time in comparison to other degrees requiring years of unending efforts. I call it ‘3’ vs.’30’ Rule. Invest Only ‘3’ months of your life smartly to secure the upcoming precious ’30’ years of your life in return. To the depth, our training duration against ‘Nebosh IGC UK’ lasts till ’20’ working days followed by rigorous assessment by our competent team helping our students qualify it in their 1st attempt. Our incumbent ’96’ percent passing ratio a glaring witness to that. Whereas the overall journey takes around ‘3’ months, from the day of enrolment at HSE Academy till final result which is declared approximately after ’45’ days. As for as the other fields, you have to spontaneously burn your midnight Oil to reach somewhere not only for months but for ‘4’ to ‘6’ long years. Even that won’t do justice to let you secure a job you trully deserve.

Another indicator highlighting it’s role in Pakistan is the ongoing COVID-19 Pandemic compelling the think tankers of Pakistan to raise Health and Safety Budget. As per my last conversation with the Secretary of Ministry of Inter Provincial Coordination (IPC) KP, ”Pakistan needs to invest wisely onwards. Undoubtedly, Defense equipment like WMDs & Missiles are the need of the hour to survive in today’s World of Realism but our existence to use those missiles is the cry of the day as well.” Being an IR scholar, I personally believe ‘Gwadar’ will beat UAE (Dubai Oil Market in specific) in 2030. In other words, ‘Pakistani Engineers’ would be easily able to secure the pays they have to travel abroad for currently.
