Vocational Educators Gather in Morogoro for 5-Day Capacity-Building Workshop

Morogoro, Tanzania.

Thirty (30) Vocational Education and Training (VET) educators representing all nine VETA zones across Tanzania are participating in an intensive five-day capacity-building workshop under the TVET@Work project. Held in a hybrid format—combining physical sessions at the Morogoro Vocational Teachers Training College (MVTTC) with virtual participation—the workshop aims to elevate instruction standards and strengthen industry alignment nationwide.

The initiative is jointly organized by key implementing partners, including the Vocational Educational and Training Authority (VETA), Häme University of Applied Sciences (HAMK), HakiElimu, and the Karume Institute of Science and Technology (KIST).

The workshop focuses on five key objectives:

• Work-Based Learning (WBL) & Industry Collaboration: Adapting Finnish best practices to strengthen private-sector engagement in vocational training.
• Practical WBL Implementation: Guiding educators through the complete operational cycle—planning, instructional delivery, implementation, and assessment—using official guidelines and annexes.
• Inclusion in TVET & WBL: Applying strategies to guarantee equitable access and inclusive environments across classrooms and workplace settings.
• Youth Engagement: Deploying innovative approaches to foster student leadership and active participation within the TVET ecosystem.
• Civic Education Integration: Embedding research-backed civic engagement concepts directly into vocational training modules.

This capacity-building initiative underscores the TVET@Work project’s commitment to equipping educators with modern pedagogical skills, expanding industry linkages, and driving inclusive economic growth through high-quality technical education.
