Download or read book Gender Issues in Technical and Vocational Education Programs written by Bala, Shashi and published by IGI Global. This book was released on 2019-05-15 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As the economic growth and social development of a nation is reliant on its workforce, it is essential to increase the workforce’s employability through technical and vocational education. Through these programs, the nation’s workers will be able to acquire skills and flexibility in order to navigate across sectors of the economy and industry. However, due to gender disparities and socioeconomic statuses within society, women from a lower economic background are unable to gain access to these programs, hindering their career development and economic independence. Gender Issues in Technical and Vocational Education Programs is an essential critical resource that probes the issue of gender equity in specialized educational programs, such as vocational or technical education programs. It also presents global initiatives that are being undertaken to enhance the access to technical and vocational education programs to all citizens. Divided into two sections, this publication provides comprehensive coverage on understanding human resource skilling through vocational and training programs and promoting gender equity through skill development, making it an ideal resource for academicians, researchers, social scientists, educators, policymakers, government officials, and professionals.
Download or read book Women s Empowerment in Technical Vocational Education and Training Exploring Perspectives of Females from Vocational Institutes written by Claire Linette Seremba and published by . This book was released on 2022 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Uganda, women have achieved significant progress in technical vocational education and training (TVET), both in institutions and in the workplace. However, entry and retention rates remain low, and women continue to face numerous challenges. The primary goal of this study was to determine how these young women interpret the concept of empowerment in the context of TVET. This study begins by investigating the experiences of female Nakawa students and graduates, including their decision to attend Nakawa, their challenges at Nakawa and in the workplace, and their interactions with male students and instructors. The participants' perspectives on empowerment are highlighted in this study through two themes: social and cultural attitudes, and individual sense of self. Overall, the young women's experiences show that Nakawa created an environment that was conducive to empowerment, since they established boundaries for fair enjoyment of rights inside the institute. Graduates, on the other hand, reported more difficult experiences because of discriminatory actions at their workplaces. Through the analysis of this data, empowerment is identified as a 'process' centred on the respondents' individual experiences.

It presents best and innovative ICT-based solutions implemented in education and explores controversial topics such as challenges and opportunities. It discusses the role of ICT, vocational education and training in women empowerment. It also examines digital learning, vocational education and sustainable operations. Information and communication technologies have created new opportunities along with new challenges, putting profound and urgent implications on vocational education and training (VET). Nowadays, we must think broadly and make the right choices about VET using innovation and digitalization to boost the quality of vocational education and training, enable the upskilling and reskilling of adults, and enhance the employability of learners. The potential and the impact of ICTs in vocational education and training have yet to be fully exploited, leading to an emerging direction of research.

Download or read book The Vocational Education of Girls and Women written by Albert H. Leake and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-06-26 with total page 478 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Vocational Education of Girls and Women This book is written as a companion volume to Industrial Education - Its Methods, Problems and Dangers, and The Means and Methods of Agricultural Education. Like those books it is addressed to the great army of men and women who are concerned with the education of that large majority of our population which receives its education in the lower schools, and depends upon that education for the development of cultural ideals and vocational aptitudes. It is intended to appeal to students in colleges and normal schools that offer courses in household arts and other vocational courses for women, to school superintendents and principals, to directors of vocational schools, to social workers, to vocational advisers of girls and women, and to the growing number of lay readers who are beginning to study educational problems and affairs. No attempt has been made to deal with that ever increasing number of professional occupations into which women are now entering, as this branch of the subject is not likely to be neglected, and it is felt that the education of the fourteen to sixteen year old girl is of more vital importance to the nation at large. At this time it is essential that we should not lose sight of the fact that the character of our people will depend even more in the future than it has done in the past upon the education we give to our girls and to our women.
