The scheme was announced in the budget speech of FY 2013 – 14 and formally commenced in August 2013 with coordination and consultation with Government of the Punjab. Since the schemes under the Prime Minister’s initiative was announced for five (05) years, the second phase of the Prime Minister’s Laptops Scheme has been launched for 2015. During this phase, another 100,000 laptops will be distributed amongst the talented students as per the defined eligibility and distribution criteria.

Similar to the past year, the scheme is conceived as a comprehensive ecosystem around the laptop instead of distributing “black boxes” to students. Ecosystem as envisaged around the laptop hardware for this project, consists of various components ranging from licensed/ genuine Windows 8.1 Operating System; Microsoft Office365 application software; Training opportunity at Microsoft IT Academy at respective university/ institutes; Microsoft Office Specialist (MOS) Certification voucher, 3G/ 4G EVO Device; Access to HEC’s National Digital Library using 3G EVO Device and have opportunity to take online courses from world-renowned universities on subsidized rates through https://pakcoursera.org.

These aspects will not only bring value to money but will create synergy with relevant industries, as well as help HEIs to provide state-of-the-art technologically enabled academic environment at par with HEIs in the developed world.
