TVET DEVELOPMENT IN FIJI
  • Early Technical Education
  • Technical Centers
  • Technical Subjects
  • Technical Vocational Education and Training [TVET]
  • Technical Vocational Education and Training Today
  • Curriculum

The diversification of the labor market needs has brought about the many different types of subjects and disciplines that now make up the TVET curriculum. The combined forces of globalization and the rapid changes in technology have brought about this diversification. These two factors have contributed greatly to the nature of the workplace today, which also contributed to the way school curriculum has been designed.

TVET programme in the past was restricted only to subjects that were mainly taken by boys. Nowadays, the workplace demands are increasing not only in numbers but in the variety of skills required as well. TVET subjects that are now taught in schools include:
Agriculture Science, Computer Education, Home Economic, Food and Nutrition, Clothing and Textile, Food Technology, Apparel and Design, Woodwork, Metalwork, Wood Technology, Engineering Technology, Technical Drawing and Design, Introduction to Technology, Secretarial Studies, Commercial Practice, Shorthand, Typewriting, Carpentry and Joinery, Automotive Engineering, Basic Catering and Food Production and Basic Tailoring and Garment Production

Other new vocational courses that have recently shown popularity in schools include:
Agriculture, Computing, Marine Culture, Aquaculture, Bee keeping farming, floriculture, Hospitality study, Welding & Fabrication, Boat Building, Office Technology, Home Stay, Organic Farming, Pottery and many other studies.

There is more room for expansion but it is apparent that each school will only select the best programme that best suit its environment to offer to its children.
