- This paper addresses the nature and responsibilities of vocational education and training, and the factors which influence such provisions. It uses the Hong Kong system as an example and describes the activities and development of the major provider, the Vocational Training Council (VTC). It details the VTC's key objectives and the factors influencing its current and future activities. The major initiatives concerning education in developing an integrated institution from its nine vocational institutions with newly designed courses and repositioning its training provision are briefly described. The paper details new initiatives resulting from economic retrenchment, to provide vocational courses for unemployed, below average attainment, secondary school leavers and the importance of basic generic language and IT skills in such courses.本文概述職業培訓的性質和責任,以及其中的影響因素,並引本地體制為例,介紹職業訓練局的工作與發展。文內詳述職業訓練局的宗旨、當前及未來工作方針,包括:合併轄下九間院校、課程革新、培訓工作重新定位等。香港經濟逆轉,訓練局亦靈活應變,為失業人士和學能欠佳中學畢業生提供合適課程。該類課程除教授基本就業技能外,特別注重語文溝通技巧,資訊科技應用等訓練。[Copyright of Journal of Youth Studies is the property of The Hong Kong Federation of Youth Groups at http://yrc.hkfyg.org.hk/]
