About National Youth Council of Education & Development
A national skill development initiative under Worivakiya Foundation, focused on practical, industry-aligned, and employment-driven education.
Who We Are
The National Youth Council of Education & Development (NYCED) functions as the vocational, professional, and skill development wing of Worivakiya Foundation. The council was established with the objective of empowering youth through structured education that directly supports employability, self-reliance, and community development.
NYCED focuses on bridging the gap between academic learning and real-world skills. While formal education provides theoretical knowledge, many learners lack practical exposure and job-oriented competencies. NYCED addresses this gap by offering outcome-oriented programs that emphasize application, confidence, and skill mastery.

NYCED designs and delivers certificate, diploma, and advanced skill programs that combine classroom instruction, laboratory practice, assessments, and supervised practical exposure. Our education model is learner-centric, affordable, and aligned with current industry and community needs.

Why NYCED Exists
NYCED was founded in response to the growing need for skill-based education that leads to meaningful employment and self-reliance. Many educated youth face unemployment due to lack of practical skills, while industries and communities require trained, responsible individuals.
By offering structured skill programs, NYCED contributes to reducing unemployment, promoting entrepreneurship, and strengthening community services. Our focus is not only on earning but also on dignity of work, discipline, and social responsibility.
