Training quality and relevance
A great deal of effort is required to make sure that skills development systems deliver both the quantity and the quality of training needed. Factors that are critical to supporting these aims include: initial training, in-service learning, and working conditions for teachers, trainers, and directors of training institutions and master craftspersons to take on apprentices; up-to-date training courses, methods, facilities and materials; combining classroom- and work-based training through formal apprenticeships and other learningships; and, involving stakeholders in setting standards and assessing training results.
