Technical and Vocational Education and TrainingTVET
Education and training that equips people with the practical knowledge, skills and competencies required for specific occupations and the labour market.
Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET) covers the formal, non-formal and informal learning that prepares people for skilled employment in trades, technical fields and applied professions. It spans secondary and post-secondary vocational schooling, apprenticeships and workplace learning, short-cycle skills programmes, and continuing professional development, and is delivered through public institutions, private providers and enterprises.
In development cooperation, TVET is treated as a lever for inclusive economic growth, employability and the school-to-work transition. Effective systems align provision with labour-market demand through occupational standards, competency-based curricula, qualified teachers and trainers, recognised qualifications, and quality assurance — the areas in which indeson advises governments and development partners.
