Supporto per la formazione professionale duale 100%
Sosterrai il governo regionale di Kisumu, in Kenya, nell'implementazione di un sistema di formazione professionale duale.
The Government of Kenya is committed to promoting Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET) as stipulated in Article 55 of the Kenyan Constitution. The aim is to provide a quality education that prepares students for global competitiveness. However, the implementation of the goal of TVET is faced with difficulties. Demographic changes in the population mean that demand for training is increasing, forcing the government to expand its training provision. Other challenges are the limited financial resources, low quality of teaching, lack of reliable aggregated data for decision making, the linkage of training with labour market needs, the strong theoretical orientation of training and the low income that most colleges generate.
As TVET is a devolved function, the counties are responsible for the running and financing of most Vocational Training Centres (VTCs). Kisumu County, one of the 47 devolved administrative units, operates 28 VTCs. The intention is to transform some of their VTCs into so-called “Centres of excellence” (CoE) which will focus on one or two key professions.
