The Pakistan Institute for Parliamentary Services (PIPS) has joined forces with Code for Pakistan (CfP) to bolster its technological and educational infrastructure.

In a significant move, Muhammad Anwar, Executive Director of PIPS, and Shaji Ahmed, Chief Executive of Code for Pakistan, formalized this collaboration by signing a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU). The agreement outlines a strategic roadmap for incorporating advanced technologies into PIPS’ operations.

A key focus of this partnership is the development of an intuitive and user-friendly Learning Management System (LMS), as highlighted in a news release. The LMS is designed to facilitate the transition of existing in-person capacity-building programs to a dynamic online platform, thereby broadening the scope and accessibility of parliamentary training.

During the signing ceremony, Muhammad Nazir, Director General of IT at PIPS, provided insights into the institute’s current IT infrastructure and hardware capabilities. He expressed optimism about the collaboration’s potential to enhance the IT wing’s effectiveness and overall operational efficiency.

Shaji Ahmed commended Fayaz Thaheem, Deputy Director of the Parliamentary Development Programme at PIPS, for his instrumental role in spearheading this partnership. Ahmed underscored the transformative impact expected from the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) and advanced LMS features, emphasizing the significant evolution anticipated in PIPS’ educational landscape.
