Building on the lessons of the Strengthening Technical and Vocational Education and Training Project,[1] the proposed project will continue to support efforts to realign technical and vocational education and training (TVET) with current and future labor market needs by :
  • (i) upgrading teaching and learning environments at eight vocational colleges,[2]
  • (ii) strengthening teachers’ competencies to deliver student-centered practical training in skill areas that are in demand, and
  • (iii) improving the management of colleges and fostering an environment that demonstrates the principles of entrepreneurship and promotes involvement of companies and communities in TVET.
The project will increase poor and disadvantaged students’ access to TVET through targeted direct stipends and more dormitory spaces at colleges. The project will also undertake TVET promotion measures to improve the public image of TVET and enhance understanding of TVET products and services among youth, their parents, and communities.
