Torino Process 2014: Montenegro

This report is a result of a comprehensive [vocational education and training] VET review process implemented in 2014. Being able to assess what works in VET is important for several reasons: resources for VET reform are scarce; there is strong public interest in the results, VET is important for national policy makers, and there are many different opinions and approaches to the subject. In cooperation with the Ministry of Education and the VET Centre, the [European Training Foundation] ETF conducted policy analyses and explored the achievements of VET reform in Montenegro. The reporting period refers to the progress in VET policy from 2010 to 2014. The key questions addressed with self-assessment are structured around five dimensions of VET policy: vision for the national VET system; effectiveness and efficiency in addressing economic and labour market demand; effectiveness and efficiency in addressing demand in terms of demographic, social and inclusion factors; internal efficiency of the VET system; and governance and policy practices in the VET system. The country demonstrates strong awareness of the need to achieve a shared, long-term vision for further development of VET ensuring citizens acquire knowledge and skills to get better-quality jobs.
