The SED-TVET
Programme (Sustainable Economic Development through Technical and Vocational
Education and Training) is a joint effort of the German Federal Ministry for
Economic Cooperation and Development (implemented by GIZ), the Ministry of
Education and Culture, the Ministry of Manpower and Transmigration, the
Ministry of Industry and Bappenas. It aims at improving the employability of
manpower in selected regions of Indonesia (i.e. West Java, Central Java, DI
Yogyakarta, East Kalimantan and South Sulawesi).
Activities touch on a
wide range of issues, such as gaps in the current regulatory framework, better
use of labour market information and School to Work Transition services, TVET
management, teaching & learning processes and the cooperation between the
education / training system and the business sector in selected secondary and
post-secondary TVET institutes. SED-TVET
works in close cooperation with the responsible ministries and relevant
institutions to foster long-term implementation of successful activities beyond
the piloting TVET institutes on a
nation-wide scale.
The School to Work
Transition component of SED-TVET is tasked to support the improvement of the
collection and utilization of local labor market information for training
quality and provision of career counseling/vocational guidance services in SMK.
The School to Work Transition Component is currently preparing the scaling up
of piloted approaches, such as career guidance teaching materials and other
products, to further SMK. A final review of the products to include feedback
gathered from pilot activities is planned for the upcoming months. Moreover,
guidelines for effective career guidance and labour market information
gathering and utilization will be designed to ensure a smooth scale up and
combine the findings of our work during the past years.
To support us in this
interesting phase of the project, we are looking for an Indonesian intern, who
is committed to help us improve the access of SMK students to the labour
market. He or she will assist the implementation of the scale up and the
