ACWA is made possible thanks to the assistance of the Green Climate

Fund, with the job co-financed by the Government of the Republic of the Marshall Islands

. The Marshall Islands: Skills Training and Vocational Education Project Examines the efficiency of the project and highlights lessons. Supplies inputs to 2 wider examinations- the local assessment of ADB assistance for the Pacific and the special assessment research study on Millennium Development Goals. The low educational achievement and scarcity of Marshallese skilled workers were mainly due to the low quality of basic education, absence of access to education in the external islands, and weaknesses in skills training and the occupation and technical education system.

These supported an economy marked by high joblessness because of constrained private sector development and government downsizing. Unemployment was particularly high amongst the youth and females in the external islands. Appropriate local experienced personnel for existing job vacancies

were unavailable, hence the importation of appropriately skilled foreign employees. Therefore, there was an inequality in between offered jobs and abilities of the Marshallese labour force. These conditions provided the initiative for the Government

of the Marshall Islands to focus on technical and professional education training reforms. In 2000, ADB authorized a loan for $9.1 million to enhance abilities training to supply well-trained employees needed for sustained financial and social development. This was to be attained through an integrated nationwide skills training system. The job consisted of four elements: advancement of a career awareness program, skills training improvement, improved skills training chances for women and youth, and institutional strengthening. The expected outcome was increased income-generating chances and work for trainees, particularly women and youth in the external islands. In general, the project was ranked unsuccessful. Minimal progress was attained in making the task responsive to the requirements of its recipients and private-sector companies. The long-standing weakness of bad numeracy and literacy competencies

among public elementary and secondary school graduates and dropouts entering college or going to voc-tech education could be partially credited to the poor quality of basic education. The project 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 employment education training system has remained essentially the same after task completion. The study put forward that ADB could motivate the Government of the Marshall Islands, through assessment and policy discussion, to follow through on the government's

commitment to establishing a dedicated labour details system to connect technical and occupation education training program offerings with market demand. Although the job established a labour market details system, in the lack of internal personnel capability at the National Training Council, it was not completely functional.
