1. Introduction

1.1 Background about the project

The Project “Improving the Quality and Attractiveness of Technical Vocational Education and Training (TVET) in Lebanon (QuA-VET project is funded by the German Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ) and implemented by the Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) GmbH in partnership with the Lebanese Directorate General of Vocational and Technical Education (DGVTE).

The QuA-VET project aims to increasingly align vocational education and training in sectors with sustainable employment potentials with the needs of the Lebanese economy. Emphasis is placed on improving the partnership between vocational training institutions and the private sector, strengthening human resource capacity in vocational training institutions, and developing practice-oriented training programs. The target groups of the project are young people, unemployed and underemployed adults who want to improve their employment prospects through qualifications relevant to the labour market.

The project sets out to support the Directorate General for Vocational and Technical Education (DGVTE) in involving the private sector in vocational education and training. This concerns the establishment of school advisory boards, curriculum development, teacher training and the expansion of practical elements in teaching.

1.2 In-Service training of key groups of TVET personel and collaborating companies

GOPA Worldwide Consultants is supporting GIZ to implement Output 2 “The personnel capacities of vocational training institutions and companies for labour market-oriented vocational education and further training in the supported sectors have been strengthened”. One of the key activities within this output is the development and implementation of In-service training courses for six (6) key groups of TVET personnel and collaborating companies:

  1. TVET school managers /directors

This activity is fully in line with the objectives of the National Strategic Framework for TVET (NSF), building block 2 of the NSF which states: An improved Human Resource (HR) management system for the TVET sector is the main contributor to the quality of training, e.g. through…

  • Systematize competency-based recruitment and training for all instructors
  • Design or upgrade job descriptions for all TVET staff
  • Institutionalize a pedagogical training and certification for all instructors

Based on competence profiles, a Training Needs Analysis (TNA) was conducted among the personnel of the 14 pilot schools and cooperating companies, who are implementing the two (2) new, competence-based and modularized training programmes, developed by the QuA-VET project:

  • Specialization: Industrial Mechanics (ميكانيك الصناعي), Sub-specialization: Maintenance of manufacturing machines in the light industry (صيانة آلات التصنيع في الصناعات الخفيفة)(Level Baccalauréat Technique - BT)
  • Specialization: Health inspection and food safety (الرقابة الصحية وسلامة الغذاء), Sub-specializations: Sanitation and food safety inspector, Food laboratory technician (Level Technicien Supérieur - TS)

Based on the findings from the TNA and the competence profiles, further training courses are currently developed and will implemented for the above six (6) key groups of TVET personnel, starting from October 2023.
