Gesellschaft fuer Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) GmbH is a German
international cooperation enterprise for sustainable development with worldwide
operations.
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.
