Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, classroom trainings came to a sud-
den halt, therefore, NIBAF switched to Virtual Instructor Led Train-
ings ( VILTs) by redesigning content for the virtual platform. In June
Karachi Campus managed to conduct 17 VILT of two to three hours
duration which included stress management through mindfulness
and other soft skills, IT based training, and various central bank-
ing functional areas. In July a diverse training calendar has been
launched which includes a blend of soft skills, functional areas as
well as IT based skills.
