6th National Skills Competition
18–22 February 2027 · International Convention City Bashundhara, Dhaka
Five halls, thirty skills, around 420 competitors, and a Skills Show that anyone can walk into for free.
Format
Each skill runs its full WorldSkills test project duration — three or four judged days depending on the skill. That is the big change for 2027: the national event now matches what competitors face internationally, so selection for the squad means something.
Who competes
The top three in each skill from each divisional heat. Where a skill is contested in fewer than four divisions, the field is topped up by score.
