Request-based technical support (2017-2022)
We offered technical assistance through short-term interventions that build VET system capacities.

Between 2017 and 2022, VET Toolbox successfully implemented technical interventions in eligible countries. Each intervention, requested by public authorities, social partners, and private institutions, has placed an emphasis on providing expertise to support systemic change, through capacity-building key stakeholders, developing tools, and advising on strategic planning.

Twinning and mentoring partnerships (2019-2022)
LuxDev and the British Council are working to support the development of TVET in different countries through various partnership agreements. As part of VET Toolbox, LuxDev used a South-South approach to match countries with similar contexts and improve the management of vocational training centres, focusing on public-private collaboration to improve the quality and relevance of training. The British Council set up intercontinental Mentoring Partnerships, bringing together local institutions with a UK TVET college, to focus on employer engagement and bring training programmes closer to the needs of industry.
