Technical and vocational institutions should provide job-oriented training in collaboration with industries, it was said.
This was said during a job fair jointly organized by Tegbareed Polytechnic College, Nefas Sil Polytechnic College, Kepler and SOS Children Villages.
It is said that if industry and vocational training colleges can provide training together, the student will easily benefit from job opportunities.
Addis Ababa Tegbareed Polytechnic College Deputy Dean Ato Mahamud Tayeb says that students who graduate from vocational institutions should graduate with better skills and qualifications in the field they studied.
This happens when industry and educational institutions work closely. Ato Mahamud said that a student who trains in vocational institutions is not only given the results of the school but also from the industry where he did his practical training.
Now, as in the case of city polytechnic colleges, they are trying to focus on a specific training field by choosing a sector to work well. This will make the institutions more effective, he said.
Kepler Academics and Program Manager Frehiwot Mane told us that they will help other colleges, including the Polytechnic College, by providing training in the activities to make students employable.
Frehiwot Mane explained that they are connecting students with industries to find jobs. He mentioned that this year, the 4th job fair was organized and 70 organizations participated.
Educational institutions should regularly review the types of education. In the past 4 job fairs, we have seen that some types of education cannot be found in the industrial sector outside the government office.
