<br>Fund, with the job co-financed by the Government of the Republic of the Marshall Islands<br>
<br>. The Marshall Islands: Skills Training and Vocational Education Project Evaluates the efficiency of the job and highlights lessons. Provides inputs to 2 more comprehensive examinations- the regional examination of ADB support for the Pacific and the special examination research study on Millennium Development Goals. The low educational attainment and scarcity of Marshallese skilled workers were mainly due to the low quality of basic education, absence of access to education in the external islands, and weak points in skills training and the employment and technical education system.<br>
<br>These supported an economy marked by high unemployment because of constrained private sector development and federal government downsizing. Joblessness was specifically high amongst the youth and women in the external islands. Appropriate local skilled personnel for existing job vacancies<br> were not available, thus the importation of properly competent foreign workers. Thus, there was an inequality in between available tasks and abilities of the Marshallese labour force. These conditions supplied the initiative for the Government<br>of the Marshall Islands to focus on technical and employment education training reforms. In 2000, ADB approved a loan for $9.1 million to enhance skills training to offer trained employees needed for sustained financial and social advancement. This was to be achieved through an integrated national skills training system. The project consisted of 4 elements: development of a profession awareness program, abilities training improvement, enhanced abilities training chances for females and youth, and institutional strengthening. The expected result was increased income-generating chances and work for students, specifically ladies and youth in the outer islands. In general, the project was rated unsuccessful. Minimal progress was attained in making the task responsive to the requirements of its beneficiaries and private-sector employers. The long-standing weak point of bad numeracy and literacy competencies
<br>amongst public primary and secondary school graduates and dropouts getting in college or attending voc-tech education could be partly credited to the poor quality of basic education. The job was supply-driven and might not establish a strong linkage with private sector requirements or align its activities with the needs of the labour market. The status of the technical and trade education training system has remained essentially the very same after job completion. The study put forward that ADB might motivate the Government of the Marshall Islands, through consultation and policy dialogue, to follow through on the federal government's
<br>dedication to establishing a devoted labour info system to connect technical and trade education training program offerings with industry need. Although the job established a labour market details system, in the absence of internal staff capability at the [National Training Council](https://groups.io/g/PacificVacancies/topic/marshall_islands_maritime/85431430), it was not completely operational.
