Access to training

Access for all to good quality education, vocational training and workplace learning is a fundamental principle of social cohesion and economic growth. Some groups of people may require targeted attention if they are to benefit from education, training and employment opportunities.

This is particularly the case for disadvantaged youth, lower skilled workers, people with disabilities, and people in rural communities. The attractiveness of vocational education and training is enhanced when combined with entrepreneurship training and when public policies encourage utilization of higher skills by business.

Skills policies and strategies

Skills and employment policies should be viewed together. The full value of one policy set is realized when it supports the objectives of the other. For investments in education and training to yield maximum benefit to workers, enterprises, and economies, countries’ capacities for coordination is critical in three areas: connecting basic education to technical training and then to market entry; ensuring continuous communication between employers and training providers so that training meets the needs and aspirations of workers and enterprises, and integrating skills development policies with industrial, investment, trade, technology, environmental, rural and local development policies.

This Strategy 2014 – 2020 builds on the achievements of the developments experienced in the implementation of the previous strategy 2008- 2013, but also takes into account the lessons learned. Given a widespread, diverse network of public and private training providers with different institutional set-ups and their specific training philosophies it remains a fundamental task to create a coherent E- TVET system. This will follow an agreed upon and harmonized policy set, sharing underlying principles and philosophies throughout the sector. Its scope will cover all forms of post primary education and training instruction that are directly linked with the acquisition of vocational and technical skills at all levels, from semi-skilled to technician level, in initial and continuous training courses.

The aim of this strategy development is to make a significant contribution and achieve better alignment and cohesive governance in the E-TVET sector. Ultimately, building on past goals and achievements and current Government priorities, the strategy will assist in building a cohesive and structured employment oriented (demand-led) TVET sector that is well managed.
