Finanzierung Beruflicher Bildung Financing vocational training Im Rahmen des Projekts soll die dual-kooperative Berufsbildung gefördert werden. Dazu soll der in der ersten Phase etablierte Mechanismus zur Finanzierung Beruflicher Bildung in Laos (Vocational Education Financing Facility/VEFF) zunächst vorgeführt und zeitnah in den im Aufbau befindlichen TVET Development Fund überführt werden. Aus dem Modul sollen kleinteilige Maßnahmen finanziert werden, für die in gemeinsamen Anträgen von Berufsschulen und Unternehmen im Rahmen eines Challenge Funds Mittel beantragt werden. Durch die Fazilität soll die Zusammenarbeit zwischen Privatsektor und Bildungseinrichtungen gestärkt werden, indem beide Seiten finanzielle sowie technische Unterstützung für die Implementierung gemeinsamer Berufsbildungsangebote erhalten. Der Ansatz des Fonds stellt eine zukunftsweisende Erweiterung der bisherigen angebotsorientierten Finanzierung des laotischen Berufsbildungssystems hin zu einer nachfrage- und wettbewerbsorientierten Finanzierung dar. Träger ist das laotische Bildungsministerium (Ministry of Education and Sports/MoES). Modulziel ist die Verbesserung der Qualität und Arbeitsmarktrelevanz des Berufsbildungsangebots in den geförderten Instituten und Unternehmen. Die Gesamtkosten des FZ-Vorhabens belaufen sich unter Berücksichtigung eines laotischen Eigenbeitrags auf rd. 6,75 Mio. Euro. Der FZ-Finanzierungsbeitrag beträgt 6,0 Mio. Euro für Investitionen. The project aims to promote dual-cooperative vocational education and training. To this end, the mechanism for financing vocational training in Laos (Vocational Education Financing Facility/VEFF), established in the first phase, will initially be demonstrated and transferred to the TVET Development Fund, which is currently being set up. The module will be used to finance small-scale measures for which funding will be applied for in joint applications from vocational schools and companies as part of a challenge fund. The facility is intended to strengthen cooperation between the private sector and educational institutions by providing both sides with financial and technical support for the implementation of joint vocational training programs. The fund's approach represents a forward-looking expansion of the previous supply-oriented financing of the Laotian vocational training system towards demand-oriented and competitive financing.The executing agency is the Laotian Ministry of Education and Sports (MoES). The module objective is to improve the quality and labor market relevance of the vocational training offered by the funded institutes and companies. The total costs of the FC project, taking into account a Laotian counterpart contribution, amount to around EUR 6.75 million. The FC financing contribution amounts to EUR 6.0 million for investments.
