Supplementary Appendix B 9<br />

3. Using the criteria shown in the above table, PTCs were grouped into three categories as<br />

shown in the next table.<br />

B. Effectiveness Categories of PTCs<br />

Table 2: Effectiveness Categories of PTCs in Existing M<strong>and</strong>ate<br />

Based on Survey <strong>and</strong> Interviews<br />

# Category 1: Category 2: Improvement over<br />

past 2 years but needs coaching<br />

to meet minimum PTC<br />

performance<br />

Category 3: Requires<br />

significant support to<br />

meet minimum PTC<br />

performance<br />

1 Battambang Kratchie Pailin<br />

2 Kampot Pursat Kampong Speu<br />

3 Siem Reap Kampong Cham Kampong Thom<br />

4 Takeo K<strong>and</strong>al Rattanakiri<br />

5 Svei Rieng Sihanoukville Beanty Meanchey<br />

6 Stung Treng Prey Veng Odar Meanchy<br />

7 Kampong Chhnang Koh Kong Kep<br />

4. Those PTCs in category 1 will be the included in the first phase of VSTP expansion.<br />

Category institutions 2 will receive capacity building <strong>and</strong> will begin with the exp<strong>and</strong>ed VSTP in<br />

Group 2, year 2. Category 3 will receive more extensive capacity building including intensive<br />

coaching <strong>and</strong> will be included in Group 3 expansion of VSTP in the 3 rd year of the Grant.<br />

C. Criteria for Selecting Institutions to become Regional Centers<br />

5. Five PTCs or other DGTVET Institutions will be selected for expansion to Regional<br />

Centers, providing in-service upgrading to PTC <strong>and</strong> private provider trainers <strong>and</strong> middle level<br />

<strong>and</strong> technician diploma level training to PTC <strong>and</strong> secondary school graduates from the Region.<br />

One Regional Center is required to service each quadrant of the country. Only Category 1<br />

PTCs from Table 2 were considered for upgrading to Regional Center Status.<br />

6. Further criteria for selecting four PTCs to Regional Center status include:<br />

(i) Space (l<strong>and</strong>) for future growth. Centres will need to grow quite quickly as the<br />

population responds increasingly to the link between TVET <strong>and</strong> job prospects.<br />

Investing in a location that cannot be exp<strong>and</strong>ed is very questionable. Generally<br />

an area of 500 meters by 500 is required. In some cases a 2 campus solution will<br />

be required.<br />

(ii) In or close to a city to provide OJT opportunities, student accommodation, <strong>and</strong> a<br />

resident student base both full time <strong>and</strong> part time.<br />

(iii) Proximity to Industrial/Economic Parks/Zones<br />

(iv) Projected population growth in the catchment area over the next 10 years.<br />

(v) Site of an existing PTC that has shown consistent improvement in quality over<br />

the ESDP II project in the assessment of DGTVET <strong>and</strong> ESDP II consultants.
