Following the successfully delivery of the 2005 VET Reform Phase II in Serbia, a consortium with Human Dynamics will launch work on “Additional Support to Reform of Vocational Education and Training (VET)” in May 2008, seeking to build upon the successes of Phase II
This 11 months EU financed Project will continue to develop the results by the CARDS 2005 VET Reform programme for Vocational Education and Training, and Adult Training.
The overall objective of the Project is to contribute to the Serbian Government’s efforts to promote national socio-economic development and cohesion through a coherent VET system and a well skilled labour force, adapted to the needs of the labour market.
This is to be achieved through:
- Institutional capacity building for the Ministry of Education (MoE) and other national stakeholders to develop and implement a policy and strategy framework for vocational education and training based on partnership, and ensuring the link between training
- provision and economic development.
- Strengthening the capacity of national and local actors to design and implement new vocational education and training programmes for young people and adults (Human Resource Development (HRD) and curricula development).
- Upgrading the school infrastructure (supporting EIB Education Sector Loan for building and equipping of new schools and rehabilitation of others, and supporting delivery of VET equipment to pilot schools).
