Business sector involvement in TVET delivery and governance in Viet Nam: Current situation and policy implications
English
Bilateral organizations
The development agencies of many countries make skills development a pillar of their Official Development Assistance – from the perspective of education systems, employment promotion, poverty reduction, and private sector development. Documentation of their experience, evaluations and impact assessments, mission statements, and other knowledge products are made available through the Global KSP.
Participation of employers' and workers' organizations
The world of learning and the world of work are separate but linked. While one involves learning, the other produces goods and services. Neither can thrive without the other. Strong partnerships between government, employers and workers help ensure the relevance of training to the changing needs of enterprises and labour markets.
Training quality and relevance

• Improve the understanding about the extent, characteristics, constraints and potentials of enterprise-based TVET institutes in Viet Nam;
• Provide an overview about existing forms of cooperative TVET delivery (internships and other cooperation between TVET institutes and business sector);
• Analyse the business sector representation in TVET governance (e.g. standard setting, assessment and governing of institutes) and to assess how this involvement can be further improved;
• Identify knowledge gaps and recommend further research.
The study is based on a rapid appraisal of the subject that focussed on qualitative interviews with a number of sector experts, companies and TVET institutes. It concludes with recommendations on how to strengthen the role of the business sector and to improve the cooperation of enterprises with TVET institutes of various kinds.
