Partnerships with industry for efficient and effective implementation of TVET
Abstract
This article focuses on partnership with industry as a means to efficiently and effectively implement technical and vocational education and training (TVET). Specifically, this article examines the situation in Africa, which is suffering from a chronic lack of skilled workforces both quantitatively and qualitatively. It outlines applicable six strategies to strengthen partnerships in TVET: (1) the industry’s involvement in the development and expansion of TVET, (2) a 60+40 training system to increase efficiency and productivity, (3) introducing national technology qualification (NTQ) system, (4) systemizing lifelong TVET, (5) TVET’s strategic transition, and (6) establishing regulatory and systemic framework. In addition, it displays an overview of partnership-based TVET system, which is a combination of the six strategies.
