coordinating, regulating, financing, promoting and providing vocational education and training in
Tanzania.

2.3.3 Collaboration with stakeholders
Fostering linkages with employers and labour market, provide an avenue for improved
employability of VET graduates and quality training provision. The following stakeholders have
been in collaboration with VETA during the period under review and they exclude the
collaboration with companies established under SEP as indicated in Appendices 2 and 3..
2.3.3.1 Internal stakeholders
Mining companies in Tanzania (Apprenticeship training at Moshi and Mwanza
RVTSCs),
Renewable Energy Authority (rural electrification),
National Housing Corporation (Training in hydra foam brick making),
MOROWASA and MAZAVA FABRIC of Morogoro.

graduates)
Association of Canadian Community Colleges (ACCC) (Hospitality, Agriculture,
Mining and Construction training),
Hamburg Chamber of Commerce (Apprenticeship training),
Swiss contact (Agriculture training),
Utalii College in Kenya (Hospitality training)
2.3.4 Modernization of VETA Centres
VET quality provision requires also improved training facilities to match with the requirements in the
labour market. This entails modernization of VET workshops in its broad sence. The Authority is
implementing the modernization project in phases depending on availability of funds. Currently,
seven workshops are under the programme.
Completion of first phase of the modernization program (Workshop for Tanga (Industrial Electricity),
Kihonda (Agro mechanics and Truck driving), Mwanza (Heavy duty equipment mechanics and
Industrial Electricity) and Moshi (Civil draughting) is underway and will be realized in the 2014/15
financial year.
2.4 Enhance VET Management system and Financing
In order to realize effective, efficient and sustainable development in the VET sub sector, firm
management of resources and control supported by staff commitments are pre-requisite conditions.

Improvement quality of and access to VET requires also improvement of Vocational Teachers both in
quality and quantity to address growing demands in the labour market.
In order to address this challenge, the Authority has initiated and realized the following milestone
during the period:
Vocational teachers enrollment increased from 276 in 2011/12 to 939 in July 2014 in the
certificate course, whereby in diploma program were increased from 34 in 2011/12 to 89 in
2013/14,
Strengthening and streamling Entrepreneurship Education and Training (EET) in VET
institutions,
Establishment of seven Off campus centres nationwide, and
MVTTC programmes accredited by NACTE,
12
3.0 MAIN CHALLENGES
Apart from realising the aforementioned achievements, the Authority experienced some shortfalls and
challenges during the period under review. However, several actions are being and continue to be
taken to mitigate them as outlined in Table 3.
Table 1: Challenges and action taken
SN CHALLENGE ACTION TAKEN
1. Low capacity of VET centres to meet the
ever increasing demand vocational
education and training
Introduce different modes of learning e.g.
Open and distance learning, enhance both
formal and informal apprenticeship training
2. Inadequate fund for establishment of
DVTCs
VET Board set some funds (4 billion) as a
start for establishing DVTCs as the
government looking for other means to
handle this.
3. Inadequate fund to meet the expanding skills
demand in the country (1/3 of SDL)
To continue requesting the Government to
consider increasing SDL ratio to VETA.
4 Delay in remittance of SDL to VETA Intensify follow up with treasurer
4.0 WAY FORWARD
Employment of VET graduates is regarded as the most measure of effectiveness of training provision and
regulations. The tracer study of VET graduates conducted in 2010 revealed employment rate of VET graduates
is about 67%. The target is to reach 80% by 2016/17. Given the limited scope in the formal sector
opportunities for VET graduates, mostly, employment avenues lie in the informal/micro economic sector.
According to tracer study findings, graduates lack appropriate competencies to access formal employment.
They also lack technical and financial support to access self-employment.
Through deployment of comprehensive and relevant strategies, outlined above,VETA is now improving the
quality of her graduates to facilitate their employability. The tracer study also revealed the aspect of attitude
and practical skills as important features and prominent for recruitment by most employers. VETA will
continue to expand training opportunities and improving VET quality provision as follows:-
To increase access and equity in VET in order to expand employment;
The following steps are being taken in order to improve VET access and equity:-
Upon availability of funds, Veta will accomplish the establishment of the remaining 26
to reach 31 District Vocational Training Centres for phase one
Construct the four(4) RVTSCs with the expectation of creating more than 15,400
training opportunities per year;
Facilitating registered VET training centres to increase number of trainees from the
120,000 in 2012/13 to 300,000 annually by 2016/13.
Improving training environments in VET institutions, enrolling trainees with special
needs; and
Establishing e-learning and mobile training.
13
a. To improve employability of VET graduates;
In order to improve employability of VET graduates, VETA will continue implementing the
following:-
Improving practical training in VET centres;
Improving teaching of entrepreneurship education and training to improve
employment;
Providing modularized training system for multi skilling of the graduates;
Establishing incubation centres to improve employability of VET graduates; and
Improving VET graduates records for establishing graduates data base for potential
employers.
b. To improve training of vocational teachers;
VETA believes that, good quality teachers are a hub to improve quality of training. VETA
will also continue implementing the following:-
Build capacity for VET instructors;
Improve and reviewing training curriculum according to findings of labour market
studies; and
Improve teachers training at Morogoro Vocation Teachers Training College to address
practical skills in Workshop.
c. Provide training to informal sector operators;
VETA will continue providing training in order to address the demands of the informal sector
under the integrated Training for Entrepreneurship promotion (INTEP). Target is to train
15,000 informal sector operators by 2016/17.
d. Provide Training to Staff in the Formal Sector through SEP.
VETA will continue working collaboratively by employers in implementing SEP in order to improve
productivity and sustain employment of the workers. The target is to collaborate with 250 companies
by June 2017.
e. Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL)
VETA will eventually roll over RPL to other Zones and learners who has received training
through a non formal system and will issue recognized modular or full qualification as per
NVQ levels I –III.
f. Apprenticeship Training
VETA will also extend apprenticeship training to other centres and trades after pilot phase in the coiming
financial year 2015/16..
5.0 CONCLUSION
The VETA Corporate Plan IV (VCP IV) will continue to be implemented as roadmap to realize VET
National objectives. However, the unaccomplished development activities related to equitable access,
improved VET graduates employability, improved management system and financing and quality of
supply of teachers will continue to be implemented as indicated in appendix 4.

been instrumental and significantly contributed to the realization of the mentioned milestones and
landmarks. We treasure their legacy.
