| dc.description.abstract | Ethiopian TVET system is reformed with the intention of providing the economy with middle level skilled workforce and alleviating poverty and its implementation is under way. The implementation phase of any change process is typically the most failure- prone. To this end, this study was designed to assess the practice and problems that hinder the successful implementation of TVET reform in West Haraghe zone. Descriptive survey was the research method employed to identifY the scale and nature of problems of TVET reform implementation. The study was conducted in six Woredas and four TVET institutions, West Hararghe zone TVET offices and Oromia TVET Agency . Trainers, Trainees and Management bodies were selected from sample TVET institution by systematic sampling technique. Three separate questionnaire, interview and focus group discussion guide, were employed to col/ect data from a total of 251 respondents. In addition, check list was utilized to collect data from Zone and Woreda TVET Offices and TVET institutions. The data gathered through questionnaires were analyzed by employing statistical tools such as frequency, percentage, mean, standard deviation, grand mean Cruskal-Walis test, MannWhitney U-test, independent sample t-test and one way ANOVA. The tests were made with 95% (a= 0.05) level of confidence. The result of the study portrayed that the efforts that have been made to create the enabling environment for TVET reform implementation were constrained by poorly built consensus among the stakeholders, poorly committed and functioning of established TVET governance, poor linkage of market place requirement and delivery systems, theoretically dominated training approaches ,and poor allocation of resources. This implies that the preparations made, and the results obtained might not be promising in the realization of TVET reform implementation. Hence, it is inferred that the implementation of TVET reform seems poor and the intended success in terms of formal TVET might not be attained. The alternative solutions recommended to be addressed by West Hararghe Zone and its respective Woreda TVET offices and TVET institutions are: revisiting the implementation plan, undertaking planned market need assessment, establishing strong cooperative training system with employers, mobilizing relatively adequate resource, and providing at least one TVET institution per three Woredas with meaningful involvement of stakeholders | en_US |
