Educational Transformation through TVET

Abstract

Transformation in education is possible through vocational education as it has taken diverse responsibilities to promote employment in the society. Its motto is to address the need of an individual at local level so that the transformative motto of education can be met. The process of transformation starts from person, then it transforms the society; ultimately, it transforms the nation. Work-based learning can transform an individual from the ideals of theoretical education which is often known as formal education. In transformative education, the responsibility of instructors directs accordingly to focus students in local course and context. TVET has established a new fabric in such context so that we can transform an indifferent, inactive, unemployed person to laborious, active and engaged one. The motto of transformative education is to respect own work so that one can realize change and contributes in course of development. TVET education would rationalize when we can implement local based curriculum with field-work. Secondary sources have been consulted to develop the article. Mostly, the way of transformation has been focused with literatures.
