A technical and vocational education and training policy for UNESCO: a background paper.

This outline review of issues for the UNESCO TVET strategy covers the crucial normative dimension of skills, capacities and qualifications; the role of new upstream policy analytic work on skills development; the concerns with capacity, critical mass and a skills development community of practice; the statistical challenge of skills development data; and the relation of these suggestions to the current draft of UNESCO’s Programme and Budget for 2010-2011.
