Building capacity for TVET staff has been identified as a cornerstone for modernizing the UNRWA TVET programme. UNRWA TVET has a training programme for newly hired employees called Vocational Technical In-service (VTI). This programme was established many years ago, and its content is outdated and ineffectual in dealing with the new, emerging, and anticipated developments in the TVET ecosystem, as well as technological and market demands, specifically the greening and digitalization of labor markets. UNRWA TVET recognized the critical need to assess and improve the existing VTI Programme, as well as to create a well-integrated agency-wide in-service Professional Development Programme (PDP). The envisaged modernized Professional Development Programme will address the limitations of the present obsolete VTI Programme; respond to new and developing changes in the TVET ecosystem; cover technical, pedagogical, and leadership components of professional development; and contribute to the skilling, upskilling, and reskilling of UNRWA TVET staff. The PDP combines TVET staff's career progression with ongoing professional development and will be used as a continuous improvement tool by collecting feedback, testing ideas, models, modalities, and practices. 2. Assignment background and objectives The in-service Professional Development Programme (PDP) aims to equip the UNRWA TVET staff with the knowledge and skills to: 1. Utilize effective and inclusive pedagogical and andragogical approaches in the design and delivery of UNRWA TVET learning programmes. 2. Employ modern management and leadership practices to strengthen TVET governance, ensure quality assurance, and enhance linkages with the labour market. 3. Promote innovative and flexible learning models, with a focus on advancing UNRWA TVET greening and digital transformation. 4. Embed principles of inclusion and Occupational Health and Safety (OSH) across all UNRWA TVET operations, projects, and learning programmes. 5. Incorporate current and emerging labour market skills and technologies into TVET learning programmes. To achieve these objectives, the TVET & Youth Division at UNRWA Headquarters in Amman has defined the general areas of competence and the technical and core skills required of TVET staff. It has also prepared a comprehensive profile that clarifies the programme structure, format and learning courses. In addition, the Division has drafted the learning guides of each learning unit which includes its corresponding objectives, activities, performance assessment criteria, and required resources.
