Localization of TVET in Developing Countries

Abstract

TVET stands as an important factor for developing and developed countries equally for the production of skilled manpower in these days. The system of these two countries is quite different while making it systematic. The developed countries have got optimum benefit from it due to adequate development of industries, investment and government policies. However, developing countries have been lagging behind for the implementation of this system. They have lack of budget and policy constrains to develop it in a systematic manner. This article suggests adopting local approach of TVET to institutionalize traditional apprenticeship and RPL into mainstream of education in these countries. Localization of TVET can be a better solution for those countries which have no developed industries, adequate investment and well developed policies. Secondary sources have been used to prepare this article which has analyzed the situations of localization of TVET in developing countries. The developing countries need to recognize their ground-realities that would be better for the promotion of localization. Localization can be a better solution for these countries to access development tasks.
