The COVID-19 situation has had a significant impact on skills development programmes. The problems confronting formal TVET and short-term capacity building for out-of-school children and existing workers are unparalleled.
The use of solutions such as studying from home varies significantly among nations and demographic groups, depending on access to energy, internet connectivity, gadgets or media, learning platforms, and teacher and learner readiness for remote education.
In comparison to other areas of education, the emphasis on practical work skills readiness presents unique challenges for remote learning, as it is generally a poor alternative for hands-on experiences and learning-by-doing, which comprise a significant portion of TVET and other skills sets training programmes.
Nonetheless, several opportunities remain, particularly for programmes that place a high premium on academic subjects and incorporate computer-based practical exercises. Skills development initiatives can assist in mitigating the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, both during the first coping period and when economies begin to recover.
