Fund, with the project co-financed by the Government of the Republic of the Marshall Islands

. The Marshall Islands: Skills Training and Vocational Education Project Evaluates the efficiency of the project and highlights lessons. Supplies inputs to two more comprehensive assessments- the regional examination of ADB support for the Pacific and the unique evaluation study on Millennium Development Goals. The low instructional attainment and lack of Marshallese skilled workers were largely due to the poor quality of standard education, lack of access to education in the external islands, and weaknesses in abilities training and the employment and technical education system.
+
These supported an economy marked by high unemployment because of constrained economic sector development and federal government downsizing. Joblessness was particularly high among the youth and women in the external islands. Appropriate regional competent workers for existing job vacancies
were not available, thus the importation of properly experienced foreign employees. Thus, there was an inequality in between readily available jobs and abilities of the Marshallese labour force. These conditions supplied the effort for the Government
of the Marshall Islands to focus on technical and professional education training reforms. In 2000, ADB approved a loan for $9.1 million to improve skills training to supply well-trained employees required for sustained economic and social development. This was to be accomplished through an integrated national abilities training system. The task consisted of four parts: development of a career awareness program, abilities training enhancement, enhanced skills training chances for females and youth, and institutional conditioning. The anticipated outcome was increased income-generating chances and work for students, especially ladies and youth in the outer islands. In general, the project was rated not successful. Limited development was accomplished in making the job responsive to the requirements of its recipients and private-sector companies. The enduring weakness of bad numeracy and literacy proficiencies +
among public primary and secondary school graduates and dropouts going into college or attending voc-tech education could be partly credited to the poor quality of fundamental education. The project 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 occupation education training system has actually remained essentially the same after project conclusion. The research study put forward that ADB could motivate the Government of the Marshall Islands, through assessment and policy dialogue, to follow through on the government's +
commitment to establishing a committed labour details system to connect technical and professional education training program offerings with market demand. Although the task set up a labour market info system, in the absence of in-house staff ability at the National Training Council, it was not fully operational. \ No newline at end of file
