Basic Caregiver Training in Nepal | CTEVT Certified Course
Basic Caregiver Training is a CTEVT (Council for Technical Education and Vocational Training)-affiliated short-term vocational course designed for individuals who want to build a career in the caregiving sector. This course teaches you everything you need to know to look after patients, elderly people, children, and individuals with special needs — safely, hygienically, and professionally.
Whether you want to work in a hospital, an elderly care home, a private household, or plan to go abroad for caregiving jobs (Japan, South Korea, Israel, Gulf countries, and more), this course gives you the foundational skills and the official certificate employers and recruitment agencies look for.
Caregivers are in high demand — both in Nepal and internationally — because of the growing elderly population, increasing hospital admissions, and rising need for home-based patient care. This is one of the fastest and most affordable ways to enter a stable, respected, and in-demand profession.
