The Marshall Islands: Skills Training and Vocational Education Project

Implementation was hampered by inadequate training of teachers despite the conduct of local trainings and enrollment in a master’s degree program. At project completion, there was still a significant lack of qualified applicants to fill available teaching posts. These trainings lacked strategic direction. An institutionalized professional development program for TVET teachers could have been developed as part of project design instead of individualized and one-time training programs.
