Transversal skills in TVET: Pedagogies and assessment
The purpose of this report is to provide insight into transversal skills education in Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET) by examining teaching and assessment of these skills in selected countries of the Asia-Pacific region. There are different understandings and conceptualizations of transversal skills across countries but in general these skills refer to a number of important competencies for life and work (namely communication, entrepreneurship, problem-solving, innovation, collaboration skills, etc.) that can be acquired through education and training and can help people better progress through pathways between education levels and across employment sectors.
