78 81 Vishwakarma, Suresh; Vishwakarma, Mahesh - Seychelles - Sureshvishwakarma@hotmail.com Vocational Training Needs in modern environments on small island nations: A Case Study of Seychelles The global economy of the day has endangered the survival of most organizations worldwide especially those who wish to be a part of the competitive race and gain competitive advantage. The situation of organizations in developing nations particularly Small Island nations need a special attention due to constraint of very limited resources and development infrastructure. To remain in the competitive race may become a distant dream in the absence of superior quality products, which is indirectly the function of well-trained employees. In most of the organizations at small island nations today career development resources are scarce and have to be used preciously. The management anticipates the vocational trainers in different areas to justify their position and a regular feedback on the output generated by them. Regular per<strong>for</strong>mance appraisals are also conducted. Career development and vocational training activities demand <strong>for</strong> close monitoring, regular assessment and effective focus to serve the purpose of the trainers, the trainees, and the organization. The identification of vocational training needs has become the top priority of every progressive organization. In fact analysis of vocational training needs contributes in defining the gap between what is happening and what should actually happen. Identification of vocational training needs if done properly helps in <strong>for</strong>mulating a strategy on which all training activities can be planned. Apart from satisfying development needs it helps the trainees to acquire multi-skills, motivating them to take extra responsibilities, increasing all round competence and preparing future generation to take on higher-level responsibility. Brief analysis of Strength, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Threats of organizations on small island nations. Example of Seychelles – Introduction to prevailing organizational scenario and identification of vocational training needs. General areas of training in the present day island nation organizations and etc. has been attempted in the present paper. 82 Washi, Sidiga - Sudan - Sidigawashi73@hotmail.com Situational Analysis of Vocational Education and Training in the Sudan: A Field Study This field study analyzed the current situation of VET from the perspective of 600 students, 100 graduates, 30 instructors and 15 administrators in four States in the Sudan. Data was collected via self-administered questionnaires as well as interviews.
