Technical Vocation Education and Training - Phase II

 

Similar to Phase I, the overall development objective of the Phase II project, in line with the Kenya Technical Vocational Education and Training (TVET) Act, 2013 is to improve access, quality and relevance of TVET. Building on the Phase 1 targeted institutions, the Phase II project targets middle level engineering and applied sciences faculties in thirty three (33) Technical Training Institutes (TTIs).This is in line with the provision of the Kenya CSP 2014-2018. The Phase II Project has particularly brought on board four 'specialized' TTIs, which mainly enroll youth with hearing and visual impairments as well as multiple disabilities. The main project interventions are to: provide the complete set of equipment for engineering and applied sciences work stations; upgrade skills for existing TVET tutors including industry attachment; train poor and vulnerable youth in relevant TVET programs; support operationalization of the newly created TVET authority for accreditation and standards; and strengthen Governance and accountability at the TTIs level.

 

Activities:

  • Component 1: Improve access, quality and relevance of TVET

  • Component 2: Equip vulnerable youth with relevant TVET skills and work experience
