Innovative Strategies in Technical and Vocational Education and Training for Accelerated Human Resource Development in South Asia: Nepal
Asian Development Bank | November 2015
Abstract
This publication consists of six country reports on technical and vocational education and training and higher
education in Bangladesh, Nepal, and Sri Lanka. Each report presents current arrangements and initiatives
in each of the three countries’ skills development strategies, complemented by critical analysis to reveal
key issues, challenges, and opportunities for innovative strategies toward global competitiveness, increased
productivity, and inclusive growth. The emphasis is to make skills training more relevant, efficient, and
responsive to emerging domestic and international labor markets. The reports were conducted under the
Australian AID-supported Phase 1 of Subproject 11 (Innovative Strategies for Accelerated Human Resource
Development) of RETA 6337 (Development Partnership Program for South Asia).
