History
The institute was formed in June 1999 by the Sheikh Hasina led Awami League Government.[2][6] In 2011, Ban Ki-moon, secretary-general of the UN, visited the institute and noted the role of Bangladeshi Peacekeepers in UN missions.[7] In 2016, The Royal Thai Army expressed interest to use the institute.[8] The language lab of the institute provides training in foreign languages such as French.[9] It has trained more than 10,000 Bangladeshi peacekeepers.[10]
