Improving the Relevance of the TVET System to the Needs of the Business Sector
Asian Development Bank | March 2012
Abstract
This study is designed to contribute to the improvements of the relevance of Viet Nam’s Technical and Vocational Education and training (TVET) system to the needs of the business sector.
Significant skills gaps have emerged between what is provided by a supply-driven training system and what the evolving market economy requires.
Further, most of the graduates from universities, colleges and technical, vocational schools have failed to acquire the skills required by businesses.
Many enterprises have to organize training courses by themselves for their newly recruited workers and 25% of TVET graduates did not satisfy the skill and knowledge requirements of these firms.
