. The Marshall Islands: Skills Training and Vocational Education Project Evaluates the efficiency of the task and highlights lessons. Provides inputs to 2 broader assessments- the regional evaluation of ADB assistance for the Pacific and the unique examination research study on Millennium Development Goals. The low instructional attainment and shortage of Marshallese skilled workers were mostly due to the low quality of standard education, absence of access to education in the external islands, and weak points in skills training and the occupation and technical education system.

These supported an economy marked by high joblessness because of constrained private sector development and government downsizing. Joblessness was especially high amongst the youth and women in the external islands. Appropriate local skilled personnel for existing task vacancies

were not available, thus the importation of appropriately knowledgeable foreign workers. Therefore, there was an inequality in between offered jobs and abilities of the Marshallese labour force. These conditions offered the initiative for the Government

of the Marshall Islands to prioritize technical and vocational education training reforms. In 2000, ADB approved a loan for $9.1 million to enhance skills training to supply well-trained workers needed for continual financial and social advancement. This was to be accomplished through an integrated national skills training system. The project consisted of four components: advancement of a profession awareness program, skills training improvement, improved skills training chances for women and youth, and institutional conditioning. The anticipated outcome was increased income-generating chances and work for trainees, particularly ladies and youth in the outer islands. In general, the project was ranked not successful. Limited progress was accomplished in making the project responsive to the requirements of its beneficiaries and private-sector companies. The long-standing weakness of bad numeracy and literacy competencies

among public elementary and secondary school graduates and dropouts entering college or participating in voc-tech education could be partially attributed to the poor quality of standard education. The job was supply-driven and might not develop a strong linkage with private sector requirements or align its activities with the needs of the labour market. The status of the technical and vocational education training system has actually remained essentially the same after task conclusion. The study put forward that ADB could encourage the Government of the Marshall Islands, through assessment and policy dialogue, to follow through on the federal government’s

dedication to establishing a dedicated labour information system to connect technical and professional education training program offerings with market demand. Although the project established a labour market information system, in the lack of in-house staff ability at the National Training Council, it was not fully operational.
