Fund, with the project co-financed by the Government of the Republic of the Marshall Islands


. The Marshall Islands: Skills Training and Vocational Education Project Examines the performance of the project and highlights lessons. Offers inputs to 2 broader examinations- the regional assessment of ADB support for the Pacific and the unique assessment research study on Millennium Development Goals. The low educational achievement and shortage of Marshallese skilled workers were mostly due to the low quality of standard education, lack of access to education in the external islands, and weaknesses in skills training and the vocational and technical education system.


These supported an economy marked by high joblessness because of constrained economic sector development and federal government downsizing. Joblessness was especially high among the youth and women in the external islands. Appropriate local skilled personnel for existing job vacancies
were not available, hence the importation of appropriately experienced foreign workers. Thus, there was an inequality in between readily available jobs and skills of the Marshallese labour force. These conditions supplied the effort for the Government
of the Marshall Islands to prioritize technical and employment education training reforms. In 2000, ADB approved a loan for $9.1 million to enhance abilities training to offer well-trained workers required for continual economic and social advancement. This was to be attained through an integrated national skills training system. The task included 4 parts: development of a profession awareness program, skills training enhancement, enhanced abilities training chances for women and youth, and institutional fortifying. The expected outcome was increased income-generating opportunities and employment for students, especially ladies and youth in the external islands. In general, the job was ranked not successful. Limited development was accomplished in making the task responsive to the requirements of its beneficiaries and private-sector employers. The long-standing weak point of bad numeracy and literacy proficiencies

amongst public elementary and secondary school graduates and dropouts getting in college or attending voc-tech education could be partly credited to the poor quality of standard education. The task was supply-driven and could not establish a strong linkage with economic sector requirements or align its activities with the needs of the labour market. The status of the technical and professional education training system has stayed basically the exact same after task conclusion. The research study advanced that ADB could encourage the Government of the Marshall Islands, through assessment and policy discussion, to follow through on the government's

commitment to establishing a committed labour information system to link technical and vocational education training program offerings with market demand. Although the task set up a labour market information system, in the lack of internal personnel ability at the National Training Council, it was not fully functional.
