| Abstract: | The purpose of the study was to examine the attitude of students;
particularly those enrolled in soft and hard fields of the study, towards
TVET program as a function of the trainee gender, field of study and level
of education. The study was conducted in Afar Regional TVET colleges of
Adadale and Lucy. Four hundred (male=150 and female=250) trainees
were randomly selected from level three and level four trainees. The
result suggested a more favorable attitude of students towards TVET
program and its value. Significant gender and educational level,
differences in attitude towards TVET and in perception on the value of
TVET program were found while that of field of study yields non
significant attitude differences. On the other hand, students did not want
to study TVET while they were in grade 10. Nevertheless, they exhibited
more interest to TVET after they participated in the program. The three
most important reasons for students to join TVET were scoring in the
10th grade national exam, personal interest and expectation for further
training. The finding of the study suggests working actively to promote
the interest of student towards TVET and to enhance further research on
students’ attitude and perception towards TVET. |
