The data in the above table is not the sum total of all the government, NGO and Private
institutions. Many of them were unable to provide information on their budget that is why
the table is not complete, In the case of Oromia, the budget indicated for 2007, 2006 and
2005 i.e. Birr 143,381, 108,381 and 149,263 are for two CSTC and one prison and one
CSTC respectively. The 34000 birr is the budget allocated for one year by one NGO.
The situation is more or less similar with the other cases too. Recognizing the fact that
skills training are expensive one could very easily conclude that the budget available is
inadequate to provide solid training for a large number of potential trainees.
It could be concluded that the budget allocated for NGO and Private institutions is not
exactly known. On the other hand, the budget allocated by the government has been
increasing during the last three years. However it was found out that it is far too small to
provide training all the year round for a large number of trainees.
It was also reported that prisons have a problem of diversifying the training they give due
to budget limitations. However, they are the most organized in terms of workshops and
giving concrete training. The measure being taken to train each prisoner with at least one
trade is very appreciable.
Adequacy of the budget
Most government institutions have reported that they don't get adequate budget that
enables them to give training all year round. They need adequate fund for the purchase of
raw materials, payment of external trainers, follow up of x-trainees require adequate
budget. The same thing is true with CBOs.
4.12. Enrolment in training centers/institutions
There is no documented statistical data on enrolment, drop out and retention on NF-
TVET institutions at Federal, regional as well as institutional level. Very little is known
about how many trainees have completed their training, self and wage employed and
unemployed. The lack of statistical information is even more serious in private and NGO
run training institutions. The scanty information available is shown in the table below.
