. The Marshall Islands: Skills Training and Vocational Education Project Evaluates the efficiency of the project and highlights lessons. Supplies inputs to 2 more comprehensive assessments- the local examination of ADB support for the Pacific and the unique assessment study on Millennium Development Goals. The low academic achievement and lack of Marshallese skilled workers were mainly due to the poor quality of basic education, absence of access to education in the outer islands, and weak points in abilities training and the professional and technical education system.

These supported an economy marked by high joblessness because of constrained private sector development and government downsizing. Joblessness was especially high among the youth and ladies in the external islands. Ideal local competent personnel for existing job vacancies

were not available, for this reason the importation of appropriately proficient foreign employees. Hence, there was an inequality between offered jobs and abilities of the Marshallese labour force. These conditions provided the initiative for the Government

of the Marshall Islands to prioritize technical and trade education training reforms. In 2000, ADB approved a loan for $9.1 million to improve abilities training to supply well-trained employees required for sustained economic and social advancement. This was to be attained through an integrated nationwide abilities training system. The task consisted of 4 elements: advancement of a profession awareness program, abilities training improvement, improved skills training opportunities for women and youth, and institutional fortifying. The expected outcome was increased income-generating chances and employment for students, specifically women and youth in the external islands. Overall, the project was rated not successful. Limited progress was accomplished in making the project responsive to the requirements of its recipients and private-sector companies. The enduring weak point of poor numeracy and literacy proficiencies

among public primary and secondary school graduates and dropouts going into college or going to voc-tech education could be partly attributed to the poor quality of standard education. The job was supply-driven and could not establish a strong linkage with private sector requirements or align its activities with the requirements of the labour market. The status of the technical and occupation education training system has remained essentially the same after project completion. The study advanced that ADB might motivate the Government of the Marshall Islands, through consultation and policy discussion, to follow through on the government’s

commitment to developing a devoted labour information system to connect technical and vocational education training program offerings with market need. Although the job set up a labour market details system, in the lack of in-house staff capability at the National Training Council, it was not completely operational.
