Greening TVET and skills development

International Labor Organization (18 October 2022) - The ILO developed "Greening TVET and skills development: A practical guidance tool” to support TVET stakeholders to mainstream skills for the green transition in TVET and skills development in a systemic and holistic manner. The tool provides “how-to” guidance on designing competency standards and curricula for greener jobs, adapting training delivery and assessments to support greener learning, adapting practices to maintain a greener campus, capacitating teachers and trainers, and sensitizing enterprises.

The guidance tool takes into account countries at different levels of economic development and has been designed to support countries in taking stock of achievements in respect of greening TVET and skills development and focusing on areas where improvements are still needed. It will contribute to a better understanding of how to design, implement, monitor and evaluate the greening TVET agenda in all country contexts, with a view to transforming TVET practices and training and so equipping the current and future workforce with relevant skills for a green, just and inclusive transition.
