As part of the EU-Ministry of Trade and Industry co-funded programme “TVET II- Support to the Technical and Vocational Educational and Training reform programme”, CID partnered with GFA Consulting were tasked with enhancing the relevance and quality of the technical and vocational education and training (TVET) system through curriculum development, capacity building and quality assurance.

Over the course of the project we worked to improve the quality of TVET curricula to become responsive to market needs through a participatory approach that included the private sector. In doing so, the project sought to improve the quality of existing programs and introduce new programs in secondary vocational schools, technical colleges, and vocational training centers. To achieve this, we adopted a three-pronged approach. Firstly, we established a new national competency based curriculum framework based on employment market demand that was the first to be adopted in the Egyptian TVET sector. Secondly, we implemented a system and set of policies for the continuous development of TVET teachers and trainers. Finally, we introduced a quality assurance system, which includes arrangements for institutional accreditation.
