Benefits of Technical

Technical Education has become a key area for investment in developing countries and many initiatives have been implemented to address unemployment issues and improve economic growth. The rationale to prioritize and invest in Technical Education is, therefore, strong and convincing and emanates from the recognition of Technical Education as a source of skills, knowledge and technology needed to drive productivity in knowledge-based and transitional societies for the twenty-first century. Technical Education is further accorded a high premium because of its potential to equip citizens with job/work-ready skills and for its potential to deal with the global challenges of youth employability and unemployment. Productivity is the basis for sustained economic growth and wealth accumulation.

 

Benefits of Professional Education
