New UK TVET system brochure – the UK Skills Partnership are excited to see the release of the British Council’s updated booklet which explains and summarises the UK Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET) Systems.
This new publication has been developed by the British Council in conjunction with the UK Skills Partnership and skills partners from across the UK TVET Sectors.
TVET in the UK forges the knowledge, skills and behaviors that enable employment and social mobility. TVET is also vital in supporting businesses to innovate and grow and plays an integral role in sustainable economic development. This happens at national, regional and local level and is hardwired into many other ambitions such as Global Britain and the Industrial Strategy.
UK TVET is also a central part of Building Back Better from Covid-19, responding to industrial and social change and tackling climate change. It is a priority in every corner of all four UK nations.
This new UK TVET system brochure provides a summary of the UK’s Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET) systems for international partners. It is intended as a high-level summary of the sector’s key features and to act as a starting point for a more detailed discussion.
Both the full booklet and the web pages are intended to be easily searchable and to provide information in a clear and accessible way.
The web pages are broken down into the following categories:
• Overview
• Who delivers TVET?
• What is the role of employers?
• Who teaches TVET?
• How do qualifications work?
• How is TVET funded?
• How is TVET quality assured?
• How do learners access and progress through the system?
