. The Marshall Islands: Skills Training and Vocational Education Project Evaluates the performance of the project and highlights lessons. Supplies inputs to two broader assessments- the local examination of ADB support for the Pacific and the special assessment study on Millennium Development Goals. The low educational achievement and lack of Marshallese skilled workers were largely due to the poor quality of basic education, lack of access to education in the external islands, and weak points in abilities training and the vocational and technical education system.
These supported an economy marked by high joblessness because of constrained private sector development and federal government downsizing. Joblessness was specifically high among the youth and women in the outer islands. Ideal local knowledgeable personnel for existing task vacancies
were unavailable, thus the importation of appropriately knowledgeable foreign employees. Therefore, there was an inequality in between available tasks and skills of the Marshallese labour force. These conditions supplied the initiative for the Government
of the Marshall Islands to prioritize technical and trade education training reforms. In 2000, ADB authorized a loan for $9.1 million to enhance skills training to supply well-trained workers required for continual financial and social development. This was to be accomplished through an integrated national abilities training system. The job included 4 parts: development of a career awareness program, abilities training enhancement, improved abilities training opportunities for women and youth, and institutional conditioning. The expected result was increased income-generating chances and employment for trainees, specifically ladies and youth in the outer islands. Overall, the task was ranked not successful. Limited development was accomplished in making the job responsive to the requirements of its beneficiaries and private-sector employers. The long-standing weak point of poor numeracy and literacy proficiencies
amongst public elementary and secondary school graduates and dropouts getting in college or attending voc-tech education could be partially credited to the poor quality of standard education. The task was supply-driven and might not develop a strong linkage with economic sector requirements or align its activities with the requirements of the labour market. The status of the technical and professional education training system has actually remained fundamentally the exact same after task conclusion. The research study advanced that ADB might motivate the Government of the Marshall Islands, through consultation and policy discussion, to follow through on the government's
commitment to establishing a devoted labour info system to link technical and professional education training program offerings with market demand. Although the task established a labour market information system, in the lack of in-house personnel ability at the National Training Council, it was not totally operational.
