This to some degree depicts male domination in the provision of TVET. The administrators and trainers of Government institutions are called coordinators and experts where as those working in private institutions are called managers and program coordinators respectively. Trainers working in the private institutions have better qualification and more experience compared to those working in the private institutions. This could be due to long years of establishment of the government training institutions. The private institutions are relatively younger as they are institutionalized with the advent of policy change for investment in the private sector. The qualification of the trainers in the sample training centers was found as seen in the table below. Type of Qualification institution Addis Ababa Ormia Amhara BA Dip Cert BA Dip Cert BA Dip Cert Government - 5 12 28 17 10 63 4 NGO - 14 1 - - - 1 25 11 Private 5 3 5 - - - - - 17 Total 5 22 18 - 18 11 11 88 32 In Addis Ababa, trainers working in NGO and the private institutions have better qualification i.e. college diploma and above. The opposite is true in the Amhara region and Oromia could be categorized in between the two. This could be understood as the type of skills being given in the Amhara region require more skilled trainer whether they have a diploma and above or a certificate. 4.2. Profile of training Providers Experience elsewhere shows that the modality of the provision of Non- formal TVET could be institutional, community based, mobile, link or apprenticeship. Obviously institutional and apprenticeship TVT training exists in the country. But little is known Education Expertise Center Feb 2008 21
Non – Formal TVET Mapping Survey The case of Amhara, Oromia and Addis Ababa about the provision of community based, mobile and link trainings. The findings of the survey could be seen from the table below. Region Ownership GVT. NGO Private Community Modality Year of Establishment Gvt. NGO Private Com Addis Ababa 3 4 5 - Institutional 1994- 2002 Oromia 6 2 - 1 Institutional 1982- 1991 Amhara 11 3 9 1 Institutional 1976- and 1 2005 mobile 1987- 1997- - 1997 2005 - - - 1986- 2006 1993- 2007 1996 The table shows that the sample training institutions are mainly government, NGO, private and community owned. Although there are different modalities of training i.e. institutional, community based, mobile, link and apprentice the ones included in the sample mainly are institutional. The community based and the private training institutions are relatively younger than the government owned ones. This implies that government institutions have long years of experience of providing NF-TVET. The non-formal TVET trainings given in the three regions are mainly institutional. The mobile modality is observed only in one case. The Save the Children UK is the sole provider of mobile training to the rural people on woodwork, tailoring, weaving and embroidery. Although it is known that apprenticeship is being exercised almost in all vocations, there is very little documentation on how it works, how many are trained and what the benefits are in terms of self-employment and improving the livelihood of trainees. The training need of the vast majority of poor youths and adults including disabled people and women makes it necessary to initiate and implement all modalities of NF- TVET training that suit different geographic locations and contexts. 4.3. Objectives of the training institutions The objectives providing technical and vocational training in government, NGO, Private institutions and CBO institutions to some degree vary. The main objective of government CBOs and NGOs are providing short-term training for youths and adults who lack skills to earn their livelihood through self-employment or wage employment. Private institutions dwell on profit making by providing trainees a variety of need based training. A summary of the findings on the objectives of the different organizations is shown in the table below.
