Skills development is one of the
priorities for national economic development strategies of
Bangladesh. The vision 2021 of the Government of Bangladesh
gives the highest priority to building a large base of
skilled workers in order to achieve a poverty-free
middle-income country by 2021. The skills development sector
is highly complex due to multiple service providers, a vast
spectrum of target audiences, a large range in modalities of
service provision, and varied emphases in terms of skills
levels and types. The short-term training, a formal channel
of six months training, is an important instrument for
bridging the gap between the needs of the labor market for
increasing the pool of skillful workers and the aspiration
of the students for finding a good job. In order to assess
the performance of short-term training and interventions by
Skills and Training Enhancement Project (STEP), a tracer
study was conducted between December 2013 and January 2014.
Skills and Training Enhancement Project (STEP) is jointly
financed by the World Bank, Canada and the Government of
Bangladesh (GoB), which started in 2010 for contributing to
Bangladesh’s medium to long-term objective of developing its
human resources as a cornerstone of its strategy for poverty
alleviation and economic growth. It supports competitively
selected 42 public and 8 private short-term training
institutions for improving the quality of training and
providing opportunities to the disadvantaged youth for
obtaining skills from the select training providers. |
