In a bid to address the pervasive skill and labour mismatch, the Ethiopian Chamber of Commerce & Sectorial Association organised a national public-private dialogue forum last week, focusing on improving Technical Vocational Educational Training (TVET) programs. Attendees highlighted the need for competent and committed governance to narrow the skill gap. Melaku Azezew, the president of the Association, underscored the importance of creating linkages between industries and TVET programs to establish robust relationships and develop complementary skills. Ministry of Labor & Skills is set to enrol over 630,000 students across the 1,300 private and public TVET campuses nationwide. Solomon Benor (PhD), head of research & engagement affairs at the Ministry of Education, echoed similar sentiments, expressing optimism in the recently ratified proclamation to align labour demand and supply effectively.
