Digitalization of national TVET and skills systems: Harnessing technology to support Lifelong Learning

The digital transition of TVET and skill systems goes far beyond taking training products and services online. A holistic and coordinated approach to digitalisation should be taken that looks at each high-level function of a national skills system, and its potential for digitalisation. This report describes and updates the picture of digital vocational education and training, providing an overview of the issues surrounding digitalisation across the key functional areas of skills systems. It gives an introduction to key frameworks and tools; concrete examples of national initiatives, adaptable digitalisation models and practical guides; as well as providing initial guidance on implementation, to deploy a strategic approach to the digitalisation of national TVET and skills development systems at the country level.
