In 2009, National Skill Development (NSD) Policy was reformed to modify the vocational education system in India. The skills development and entrepreneurship policy developed in 2015 tries to solve the challenges of skill development by inspiring early signs, development, and variations. The present study is based on a primary survey conducted in four districts of Sikkim involving 600 respondents from amongst the various stakeholders and examines whether there is any significant difference in the expressed belief held by stake-holders vis-à-vis the challenges identified in the skill eco space in Sikkim. These challenges are namely resistance to relocation by Sikkim's youth for employment, stigma against labor-oriented jobs, preference for government jobs, belief that skilling is for low academic achievers, and lack of industrial opportunities and development in the State of Sikkim. The findings can be utilized for suggesting recommendations and way forward to remove these barriers for better outreach and effective implementation of various schemes by adopting suitable practices.

Vocational education plays a pivotal role in achieving gender equality in skill development, and it has impacted the participation of women in labor market. Although there are various schemes and programs run by different ministries of India, they lack gender focus. As a result, it has widened the gender gap in various socio-economic indicators. This chapter proposes a TVET framework from gender perspective along with the review of current technical and vocational education system in India. It also identifies the challenges faced by women in enhancing their skills and its impact on their employability.

Key Aspects

Introduction. Today, the effectiveness of the economic development of a region is determined by social and economic indicators, including an increase in the performance of works and the growth of employment, which in turn depend on the state of the education system in the region. Secondary vocational education is an important part of the education system, since it develops the key competences required in the region and provides the region’s economy with highly qualified human resources. Purpose. The purpose of our study was to determine and classify the indicators revealing the state of the secondary vocational education in the region by analysing the approaches to its formation within the IT environment of the region. The article substantiates the estimate of institutional and reproduction indicators of the secondary vocational education system in the Rostov Region. It also suggests a series of measures for providing the region’s economy with qualified professionals. Methodology. In our study, we used systems analysis and machine learning methods, and human capital theory. The database included statistical data regarding the social and economic performance of the Rostov Region in 2007-2017 published in a statistical digest “Regiony Rossii”, and the results of the Rosstat monitoring of the development of information society in the Russian Federation. Results. The article suggests a concept of a secondary vocational education system in the region taking into account the influence of the interrelated factors of the IT environment. The main development areas, including in the Rostov Region, are considered, and a classification of the indicators of the state of the secondary vocational education system in the region is suggested. The indicators are divided into two groups: institutional and reproduction indicators. Based on the statistical analysis and trend lines, we estimated these indicators for the Rostov Region and suggested a series of measures aimed at providing the region's economy with qualified human resources. Conclusions. The suggested development of the system of secondary vocational education should facilitate sustainable social and economic development of the region since it will help to provide the hi-tech industries of the region with an adequate number of qualified professionals.

Purpose: India’s Polytechnics are a fundamental part of its (vocational) education and training system but are largely ignored in VET research. Understanding the status quo and potential of India’s (vocational) education landscape requires an understanding of the role played by the Polytechnics, particularly in view of the Indian government’s major efforts to implement a functioning VET system. Because little is known about the function and embeddedness of the Polytechnics the article therefore aims to examine how polytechnics are embedded in the Indian education and training system and what functions they perform for the actors within the system.Methods: The article begins by describing the systemic embeddedness of Polytechnics in the Indian education system and demonstrates their role and function in relation to a range of stakeholder groups (individuals, employers, society and the economy). Problem-centred face-to-face interviews Interviews were conducted with the principals of 14 Polytechnics in Bangalore, Delhi and Mumbai, among other cities. Semi-standardized interview guidelines were used to conduct the interviews. The interviews were analyzed by qualitative content analysis.Results: The results show that polytechnics perform various functions in the Indian education system. The Polytechnics teach both theoretical and practical skills, which is a special feature of the Indian system at this level. Qualification takes place at an intermediate level, which means that graduates have the opportunity to enter a company after graduation, where they can hold a kind of supervisor position. It is precisely these employees that are increasingly being sought by Indian companies. In addition, polytechnics provide a pathway to higher education, so students can use the opportunity to switch to a college once they have their diploma at the Polytechnic. Furthermore, the Polytechnics offers its graduates a good opportunity to become self-employed through the wide range of specializations and the practice-oriented skill development. In addition, the Polytechnics offer numerous opportunities to promote socially disadvantaged groups. Conclusion: The survey findings illustrate the importance of Polytechnics to the various stakeholder groups, demonstrating their “multidimensional bridging function” within the Indian education and training system.

The article highlights the basic theoretical principles of the author's technique of pedagogical skills development of special subjects’ teachers at vocational schools in the process of advanced training. A prerequisite for its development is the fact that the majority of special subjects’ teachers at vocational schools in various fields have professional experience in various industries and the service sector; however, they do not have pedagogical education. The quality update of training in the vocational education system requires that teachers have basic professional knowledge as well as pedagogical one, creative approach to the development of specific educational problems, implementation of innovative techniques into the training process. Taking it into consideration, the development of pedagogical skills of special subjects’ teachers can be achieved in the process of advanced training.For that purpose, the technique of pedagogical skills development of special subjects’ teachers, which offers to carry out this process step by step, was designed and implemented on the advanced training courses for teachers of vocational education system. Each stage of the technique is consistent with one of the pedagogical conditions that insure the achievement of a certain level of pedagogical skills formation. The gradual build-up of components provides a consistent and systematic process, and promotes teachers’ awareness of the need for constant professional and personal self-development, development of pedagogical techniques, and formation of readiness for creative educational activities in accordance with modern requirements for the training of qualified specialists in different fields.

Basic Education System

Despite the recent enactment of the Zimbabwean Constitution which provides for the right to basic education, complaints, reminiscent of a failed basic education system, have marred the education system in Zimbabwe. Notwithstanding glaring violations of the right to basic education by the government, no person has taken the government to court for failure to comply with its section 75(1)(a) constitutional obligations, and neither has the government conceded any failures or wrongdoings. Two ultimate questions arise: Does the state know what compliance with section 75(1)(a) entails? And do the citizens know the scope and content of their rights as provided for by section 75(1)(a) of the Constitution of Zimbabwe? Whilst it is progressive that the Education Act of Zimbabwe as amended in 2020 has addressed some aspects relating to section 75(1)(a) of the Constitution, it has still not provided an international law compliant scope and content of the right to basic education neither have any clarifications been provided by the courts. Using an international law approach, this article suggests what the scope and content of section 75(1)(a) might be.
