Fund, with the job co-financed by the Government of the Republic of the Marshall Islands
. The Marshall Islands: Skills Training and Vocational Education Project Examines the performance of the task and highlights lessons. Supplies inputs to two wider evaluations- the local evaluation of ADB assistance for the Pacific and the special examination research study on Millennium Development Goals. The low academic attainment and scarcity of Marshallese skilled workers were mainly due to the poor quality of standard education, lack of access to education in the outer islands, and weak points in skills training and the occupation and technical education system.
These supported an economy marked by high unemployment because of constrained private sector growth and government downsizing. Joblessness was especially high among the youth and females in the outer islands. Appropriate local knowledgeable personnel for existing task vacancies were unavailable, thus the importation of properly experienced foreign employees. Thus, there was an inequality in between readily available jobs and abilities of the Marshallese labour force. These conditions offered the effort for the Government of the Marshall Islands to focus on technical and employment education training reforms. In 2000, ADB authorized a loan for $9.1 million to enhance skills training to provide trained employees required for sustained economic and social development. This was to be attained through an integrated national abilities training system. The task included four elements: development of a profession awareness program, skills training improvement, boosted skills training opportunities for women and youth, and institutional fortifying. The anticipated result was increased income-generating chances and employment for students, specifically ladies and youth in the outer islands. In general, the project was rated unsuccessful. Minimal progress was attained in making the task responsive to the requirements of its beneficiaries and private-sector employers. The enduring weakness of poor numeracy and literacy competencies
among public elementary and secondary school graduates and dropouts going into college or attending voc-tech education could be partially attributed to the poor quality of standard education. The project was supply-driven and might not establish a strong linkage with economic sector requirements or align its activities with the needs of the labour market. The status of the technical and professional education training system has actually remained essentially the very same after project conclusion. The research study advanced that ADB might motivate the Government of the Marshall Islands, through consultation and policy dialogue, to follow through on the government's
commitment to establishing a committed labour information system to link technical and trade education training program offerings with industry demand. Although the task established a labour market info system, in the lack of in-house personnel ability at the National Training Council, it was not completely functional.(Image: https://assets.globalpartnership.org/s3fs-public/styles/hero_stories/public/2023-07/marshall-islands-girl.jpeg?VersionId=poNitV0rKwm2NX7Txbj7IbJFxMJJ.kYT&itok=m2nP5lUS)
