Système de Qualifications Professionnelles du Népal(angl.)

Youths entering the labour market in Nepal are compelled to remain unemployed or underemployed and work in low-pay jobs due to a lack of skills, and lack of certification and recognition of the skills they have. To provide wider opportunities and to enable Nepali youth without formal vocational training and education, and those who have gained skills through work experience to enter the labour market with recognized certificates for better employability and career path, the Government of Nepal (GoN) has initiated a National Vocational Qualifications System (NVQS) with the National Qualifications Framework (NQF) to be implemented.

Le projet

Nepal Vocational Qualifications System Project (NVQS-P) aims for systemic reform in the Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET) sector of Nepal. The successful implementation of the National Vocational Qualifications System (NVQS) would transform Nepal’s TVET landscape making it sustainable through the availability of market-relevant competent people and increased productivity of businesses and industries. This would ultimately create better earning opportunities for Nepali youths and aid in poverty reduction. 

The Swiss Agency for Development and Cooperation (SDC) provides financial and technical assistance to develop NVQS in Nepal through the Nepal Vocational Qualifications System Project (NVQS-P).  The Council for Technical Education and Vocational Training (CTEVT)/National Skill Testing Board (NSTB) implements NVQS-P on behalf of the Government of Nepal. Swisscontact provides Technical Assistance to the project on behalf of SDC.
