Aim
The Aim of the Academic Guidelines and Instructions Handbook is to provide
information about modalities of various important training activities, which

1.2

form part of the course curriculum.

Organization
NATIONAL MANAGEMENT COLLEGE (NMC), LAHORE is Integral Unit of
National School of Public Policy (NSPP). It has two wings, namely; National
Management Wing (NMW) and Senior Management Wing (SMW). NMW
conducts National Management Course for Grade-20 officers, and SMW

1.3

conducts Senior Management Course for Grade-19 officers.

History
National Management College (formerly Pakistan Administrative Staff
College) was founded in 1960 and the first course commenced on 2 nd
November 1960. So far the College has conducted 101 (one hundred and one)
courses. The average strength of participants up to 81 st NMC was 24.
However, from 82nd National Management Course onwards, and in line with
the new vision spelt out by the Government of Pakistan, a substantial increase
in the intake of the participants has taken place. Consequently, the strength of
the participants registered an increase from 24 participants to 42 for 82 nd
NMC and further rose to 46 participants by 84 th NMC. There have been 50 or
more participants since the 85th NMC. Simultaneously, substantial changes
have also been incorporated into the course curriculum, comprehensively
focusing on global, regional and domestic dynamics and issues that impact
formulation of public policy and implementation strategies. The curriculum of
the Course is further undergoing incremental changes under the guidance of
the Rector, Mr. Muhammad Ismail Qureshi. A twodays Workshop on
Strategy Formulation was introduced in 94th NMC, and its duration has
been increased to 3-4 days in 95 th NMC and onwards. Likewise, one day
additional Workshop on Negotiation, Decision Makingand Leadership and
six seminars of one day each on Core National Issues have also been
included.
The following important additions in the course curriculum since
100thNational Management Course are yet another landmark development:
a)

Conduct of a 4-5 days workshop cum hands on training on

Computer Literacy and Apps. Development in collaboration

b)

with Punjab Information Technology Board (PITB).

During 101st NMC, the third Simulation Exercise was replaced
with Specialized Domain Training Workshops (SDTWs)

stretched over 8 days. This event is unique in the sense that

four specialized domains are selected andparticipants were
grouped in each specialized domain according to their
occupational groups, service experience, core competencies,
and possible future employment. Each specialized domain
group was further sub divided to constitute 3-4 smaller groups.
Each subgroup conducted detailed evidence based research
and prepared their reports. Finally, the entire group
synthesized their reports into one policy paper and presented
it. The feedback has been encouraging and SDTWs will be
c)

conducted during 104thNMC as well.

In 103rdNMC, a two days Workshop by the US Institute of
Peace (USIP) was held with the title Pakistans Self Image
Its Place in the World and its Political and Security
Challenges. Some of the core fundamental issues were debated
in 6-7 sessions in lecture cum discussion form and
presentations by syndicates. This workshop will also be
conducted during 104th NMC.

Thus, over the period of time, two simulation exercises and one SDTWs
(application phase of learning), seven workshops, six seminars and one
strategic dialogue has beenincluded in the course curriculum.The emphasis
has been and will remain on Evidence Based Policy Formulation and
Implementation Strategy.
1.4

Location.

The College is located in the heart of city of Lahore, on the

in synchronization with our National Purpose, Aims and Objectives and the
Principles of Policy enshrined in the Constitution so as to promote, protect
and further our National Interests. A greater emphasis is laid on Evidence
Based Policy. Specific aim, scope and objectives of the SEs and SDTWs are
given in the Syllabus Book, which is being uploaded on the NMC Local Area
Network (LAN). Modality of conduct of SES and SDTWs is briefly explained
2.3

in seceding paragraphs.
SEs. The participants are divided into different Research Analysis Groups
(RAGs) and Syndicates (Synd). The RAGs will act as think tanks, research
organizations and non-governmental organizations (NGOs) and provide input
contributing to actualizing public policy proposals according to the area of
focus assigned to them. The synds will be tasked to formulate public
policy/policy directive in the national context from inter-departmental and
political perspectives. Specific aim, objectives and conduct modality for each
SE will be given in the Participants Guide, which is issued 3-4 days prior to
