The institute is being set up with an objective to train local workers to make them employable in garment and footwear factories, which want to decrease their reliance on foreign labour. The Cambodian garment sector currently employs workers from countries like China, Philippines, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh and Singapore.

The garment industry being one of the economic pillars of Cambodia, the requirement of skilled labour becomes a necessity. The institute expects to fulfill this need by training more than 1,600 garment workers in the first three years once it becomes operational. It will cover skill training from basic sewing to advanced techniques like pattern making and marketing, as per GMAC.
