1. Build4Skills - Leveraging the potential of TVET in infrastructure projects
Session organized by the Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development of the Federal Republic of Germany
Regional TVET Conference
, Naypyidaw, Myanmar
BMZ
Department Education and the Digital World

2. Initiative of the Parliamentary State Secretary and the German ADB and IDB Governor
Hans-Joachim Fuchtel: Integration of TVET components into infrastructure projects of development banks - “Build4Skills/Digital TVET Tender”
Initiative started in May 2016

3. Background
Until date: The full developmental potential of TVET in infrastructure projects is not sufficiently used in partner countries

4. Goal
Until date: The full developmental potential of TVET in infrastructure projects is not sufficiently used in partner countries
Future: Together with regional and multilateral finance institutions BMZ is going to use infrastructure projects as a vehicle for TVET, in order to generate more developmental benefits.

5. Vision
Integrating TVET as a mandatory element in tendering processes and procedures
Training of workers in workplace-based settings during the construction phase of infrastructure projects

6. Benefits
provision of high-end infrastructure including TVET, ensuring all social and environmental standards are met
a pool of skilled people, employable in other settings involving construction
enhanced employability through workplace-based and nationally accredited training
Target groups: unemployed youth, untrained workers
Partners: International development banks, partner Ministries responsible for TVET, construction companies

7. German dual TVET as a role model
Utilising success factors of the renowned German dual TVET system in the training of workers
That means:
close collaboration between the government, the private sector and non-governmental actors
shared responsibilities and joint financing between the Government and the private sector
Which leads to
Workers whose competences meet employers’ needs
Workers who can transfer their skills from one employer to the next
Workers who know how to solve problems and how to learn

8. Example Project identification: Port construction
Quantitative und qualitative manpower analysis based on the demands of the project.
Identification and comparison of quantitative and qualitative demands; matching the demand for skilled manpower with the local labor market supply (identifying the skills gap)
Design of an “on the job” TVET component, customized to the particular infrastructure project
Tender (infrastructure + TVET)
Contract award
Implementation of “on the job” TVET and infrastructure by the winner of the award in the partner country
Monitoring: Ensuring sustainability (Integration of the training programme into the local TVET system, certification, etc.)

9. Digital TVET Tender Initiative: areas of activity
Encourage Early Movers: Integration of initiative into ADB portfolio
Encourage Early Movers II: Integration of initiative into IDB portfolio
Establishment of a digital platform for analysis, advocacy, cockpit for decision-making
