TVET and skills development act as a bridge between the world of education and training and the world of work and lifelong learning. TVET cuts across every sector of the economy, and relies on effective dialogue and interaction between education and training providers, labour market stakeholders including employers, worker representatives, and other stakeholders. TVET contributes towards a wide range of socio-economic goals, including full employment, increased productivity and competitiveness, social cohesion, equity and sustainability.[2]
