This report focuses on one of the key
pillars of economic growth - namely, human development, and
in particular, on skills development in West Bengal. It
examines the current status of skills development, and
potential ways forward for making the production of skills
in the state more aligned to its economic growth needs. More
specifically, the report investigates the characteristics of
the technical and vocational education and training system
that produces skills, how these skills match up in quantity
and quality with what is in demand from employers in the
organized and informal sectors, governance and quality
assurance systems, emerging partnerships between the
government and private providers of skills, and the
availability of financial resources for skills development.
Based on the findings from primary surveys, secondary data
analysis, in-depth consultations with stakeholders, and
declared policy priorities, the report provides a strategic
framework and a time-based implementation road-map for
reforming and reorienting technical and vocational education
and training in West Bengal. This task was undertaken at the
specific request of the new Government of West Bengal (GOWB)
who took office in 2011. The GOWB wanted to know how to
improve the quality of vocational and technical education
and training in the state, and provide greater access to
skill development to more young people. The request was
formally transformed into a Non-Lending Technical Assistance
(TA) with the Education Unit of the World Bank's New
Delhi office. This report is one key output of the TA which
covered a range of activities including bringing on board
national and international expertise on various TVET issues,
consultations with a variety of public and private sector
stakeholders in the state, a series of learning and
dissemination workshops, and partnerships with organizations
who are engaged in this sector. |
