UNESCO‐UNEVOC, through its TVET Leadership Programme, aims to build the capacity of TVET leaders and professionals from around the world, as well as support them to become successful and effective agents of change in their institutions and beyond.

Since 2016, UNESCO‐UNEVOC has trained and supported over 650 TVET leaders, managers, and staff from more than 95 countries through the global, regional, national and online editions of the UNESCO-UNEVOC TVET Leadership Programme.

The 2023 edition of the TVET Leadership Programme focused on ‘Managing change through transformative TVET leadership.’ It was designed to sharpen leaders’ vision, share up-to-date TVET knowledge and trends and provide a platform for skills development.

This year, from the 1050 applications received, 159 mid-to senior-level TVET professionals from 67 countries were selected to take part in the programme. The sessions were anchored in 4 modules, each focusing on an important dimension essential for TVET leaders to become change agents. The TVET Leadership Programme lasted for six weeks and concluded on 5 December.

UNESCO‐UNEVOC organized a graduation session on 12 December 2023 to celebrate participants’ successful completion of the programme. We hope to inspire our participants to implement the teachings of the programme to manage successful institutional change.
