The involvement of PSEB member companies has been central to supporting this initiative and increasing internship capacity across major cities.
The program also serves as an important component of Pakistan’s broader workforce development agenda, particularly at a time when the digital economy continues to grow and evolve. By facilitating structured internships, the initiative helps improve employability for young professionals who require guidance and hands on training to transition effectively into the technology industry. Participants benefit not only from practical experience but also from mentorship provided by senior professionals within the companies where they are placed. This ensures that interns receive exposure to industry practices, organizational culture and the collaborative environments typical of modern IT workplaces.
With ongoing placement activities, the PSEB Internship Program continues to strengthen the talent pipeline that supports Pakistan’s expanding IT and digital services sector.
