Development of TVET Policy Framework of Sri Lanka

 
 

The Commission, with the assistance of German Technical Cooperation (GTZ) had successfully conducted a program to develop a National Policy Framework for TVET Sector in the year 2007. The main objective of this effort is to provide quality assured training so as to meet local & global skills demand, which leads to increase economic and social growth of the country.

 
 

The Commission had submitted the final document on National Policies of TVET to the National Education Commission (NEC) in the year 2008. This document will be forwarded to His Excellency the President for approval in 2009.

 
     
 

Development of TVET Policy, Strategy and Action Plans for Vulnerable Groups of Sri Lanka

 
 

The TVEC, in association with the International Labor Organization (ILO) Sri Lanka Office, convened a national consultation for designing skills training for vulnerable groups of Sri Lanka. The TVEC organized the workshop with participation of almost all stakeholders who are working in relation to vulnerable/underprivileged population of Sri Lanka. The workshop was held at the Villa Ocean View Hotel, Wadduwa from 14th to 16th July 2008 with participation of about 100 invitees from public sector, private sector, INGOs, donors and other stakeholders

 
 

The policies and strategies derived through the consultation process have been validated at a workshop held in Colombo in August 2009 and the final policy document is to be out from the press in near future.
