The governance of vocational education and training (VET) systems should ensure an efficient, effective, and equitable system for students while providing an equilibrium in the supply of and demand for skills across education and employment.
(See also Governance in VET, Tripartite governance)
By definition, governance in vocational education and training (VET) includes the policy areas of financing (who pays for services, and how), partnerships (who is doing what, and how, for win–win approaches) and assuring quality (making sure the service is good). According to international experience, governance is a key strategic policy area for effectively modernising VET, looking towards the future.
