| description | Technical Vocational Education and Training (TVET) plays an important role in socio-economic development of society by equipping individuals with the practical skills and knowledge needed to thrive in the modern workforce. This paper explores several transformative innovations in TVET, such as digitals and online learning platforms, the use of Virtual Reality (VR) / Augmented Reality (AR) technologies for knowledge transfer, competency-based education (CBE), green skills development, Public-Private Partnerships (PPPs) and industry-based training internship in Malaysia & globally. The advancements in these areas should enhance skill acquisition, improve employability of fresh graduate and ensure training programs are aligned with current and future market demands, thereby reducing the skills gap and fostering sustainable economic growth. By making education more accessible and tailored towards the needs of various industries, these innovations support the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) for inclusive development and empower under-served populations. The paper aims to provide a comprehensive analysis of these transformative TVET
initiatives, their socio-economic impacts and best practices for implementation. It also offers policy recommendations and strategies for stakeholders to invest in and support these initiatives, ensuring the continuous improvement and relevance of TVET in driving global economy. |
