- In Bangladesh, as with most other places in developing countries, the use of mobile phones is booming. Out of 160 million people, over 101 million are mobile phone users, and although the use of social media and the internet is currently at relatively low levels, this is expected to expand rapidly in the near future. There is huge potential for the TVET-R team to explore the use of mobile phones and social media by trainees as one promotional tool over the coming 18 months. There could be some small pilot activities focusing around encouraging attendance at information sessions, or enrolment in courses training, for example. For those students who are regular Internet users there could also be on-line forums with which they can interact, in order to give updates and feedback on their training and to assist new trainees as they come into the system. There is huge untapped potential to explore these avenues for promotion into the future, along with the other strategies in communication and promotion currently being used.
- description:
- Promotion of TVET in Communities: It is evident that graduate trainees are a useful source to promote CBT and TVET-Reform. During interviews people have identified that trainees themselves are the best promoters of CBT and TVET in general. They are able to promote quality training that focuses on specific practical skills, and to endorse training institutes that are supportive and considerate of people with different needs.
