The importance of integrating gender equality and social addition into all job elements was likewise discussed.

ACWA is made possible thanks to the assistance of the Green Climate

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 Examines the performance of the job and highlights lessons. Offers inputs to 2 wider assessments- the local evaluation of ADB support for the Pacific and the unique evaluation study on Millennium Development Goals. The low instructional attainment and scarcity of Marshallese skilled workers were largely due to the low quality of standard education, absence of access to education in the outer islands, and weak points in skills training and the vocational and technical education system.

These supported an economy marked by high joblessness because of constrained economic sector growth and federal government downsizing. Unemployment was particularly high among the youth and women in the external islands. Appropriate local competent workers for existing task vacancies

were unavailable, thus the importation of properly experienced foreign workers. Thus, there was a mismatch in between readily available jobs and skills of the Marshallese labour force. These conditions provided the initiative 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 trained employees needed for sustained financial and social development. This was to be attained through an integrated nationwide skills training system. The task included four components: advancement of a profession awareness program, skills training improvement, enhanced abilities training opportunities for ladies and youth, and institutional fortifying. The expected outcome was increased income-generating chances and work for students, specifically females and youth in the outer islands. In general, the task was rated unsuccessful. Restricted development was attained in making the task responsive to the requirements of its recipients and private-sector companies. The enduring weak point of poor numeracy and literacy proficiencies

amongst public elementary and secondary school graduates and dropouts going into college or participating in voc-tech education could be partly credited to the poor quality of standard education. The project was supply-driven and could not establish a strong linkage with economic sector requirements or align its activities with the needs of the labour market. The status of the technical and occupation education training system has stayed essentially the very same after task conclusion. The study advanced that ADB might motivate the Government of the Marshall Islands, through assessment and policy discussion, to follow through on the federal government’s

dedication to establishing a committed labour info system to connect technical and professional education training program offerings with industry demand. Although the job set up a labour market info system, in the absence of internal personnel ability at the National Training Council, it was not totally operational.
