Innovative and Promising Practices in TVET
UNESCO-UNEVOC acts as a clearinghouse for innovative and promising practices in Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET). Each practice shows how TVET can be designed and delivered to address contextual challenges, presents the enabling conditions for success and provides a snapshot of the positive impact on communities. You can search by keyword, region or theme.

Innovation and Learning Practices – 
i-hubs Innovative Practices – i-hubs practices are compiled in collaboration with 'Skills for innovation hubs' project partners and are based on the concept of innovation as outlined in UNESCO-UNEVOC's 
Promising Practices – TVET practices from around the world that have been implemented to address emerging challenges and to contribute to improving TVET teaching and learning in an inclusive way.
Enhancing TVET access in Small Island Developing States through AI and virtual reality
Fiji is a Small Island Developing State facing persistent challenges in delivering quality TVET to a geographically dispersed population. Limited physical infrastructure, high delivery costs and the safety risks associated with certain technical training areas restrict access to TVET, particularly for women and youth in rural and maritime communities. The integration of artificial intelligence (AI) and virtual reality (VR) into TVET delivery offers a promising response to these challenges, enabling flexible, immersive and inclusive learning that can reach communities where conventional delivery faces significant barriers.
The National Training and Productivity Centre (NTPC), the workforce development and productivity arm of Fiji National University (FNU), a UNEVOC Centre, leads this initiative as part of its mandate to build national workforce capability, improve productivity and support inclusive economic development. The initiative was developed under a project supported by the Asian Development Bank (ADB).
