Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET) 2012, para. 66
Paragraph- Paragraph text
- An essential prerequisite of quality technical and vocational education and training is to ensure the deployment and retention of qualified teachers. The provisions in the ILO/UNESCO Recommendation concerning the Status of Teachers (1966) are applicable to technical and vocational education and training, especially the provisions concerning preparation for the profession; continuing education, employment and career; the rights and responsibilities of teachers; conditions for effective teaching and learning; teacher salaries and social security; and emoluments and conditions of service. Instructors and teachers should possess the necessary qualifications, including advanced degrees and professional experience in related occupational fields. They should also have pedagogical skills and be motivated and committed to the profession. In this regard, mechanisms to ensure in-service training for teachers/educators in industry or enterprise, and continuing training in the use of information and communication technology, are especially necessary.
