The national Government reaffirmed its commitment to ensure continuous vocational training to equip trainees with relevant skills for the labour market and self-employment.
The national Minister for Labour and Public Service Ngor Kolong Ngor said the Ministry established Vocational Training directorate and developed a draft vocational training policy, Bakhita Radio reported.
He said once adopted, the draft national Vocational Training Policy and Curricula will provide a strengthened, coherent and coordinated technical, vocational education and training system that responds to market needs, fosters development, social cohesion and nation building.
Ngor said the Ministry would work closely with the private sector to achieve synergies in service delivery and implementation of programmes especially in skills training.
Labour Undersecretary Hellen Achiro Lotara said the government wanted to train manpower for the local and the international market.
