. The Marshall Islands: Skills Training and Vocational Education Project Examines the performance of the project and highlights lessons. Provides inputs to 2 broader examinations- the local evaluation of ADB assistance for the Pacific and the special assessment study on Millennium Development Goals. The low educational attainment and shortage of Marshallese skilled workers were mainly due to the low quality of basic education, lack of access to education in the outer islands, and weak points in abilities training and the trade and technical education system.

These supported an economy marked by high unemployment because of constrained economic sector development and government downsizing. Joblessness was particularly high among the youth and women in the external islands. Ideal local skilled personnel for existing job vacancies
were unavailable, for this reason the importation of appropriately proficient foreign employees. Thus, there was a mismatch in between offered jobs and skills of the Marshallese labour force. These conditions supplied the initiative for the Government
of the Marshall Islands to prioritize technical and employment education training reforms. In 2000, ADB authorized a loan for $9.1 million to enhance skills training to supply trained employees needed for continual financial and social development. This was to be accomplished through an integrated nationwide skills training system. The task consisted of four components: development of a profession awareness program, skills training enhancement, boosted abilities training opportunities for females and youth, and institutional fortifying. The anticipated outcome was increased income-generating opportunities and employment for trainees, specifically ladies and youth in the outer islands. In general, the job was rated not successful. Restricted progress was attained in making the task responsive to the requirements of its beneficiaries and private-sector companies. The long-standing weak point of bad numeracy and literacy proficiencies
amongst public primary and secondary school graduates and dropouts getting in college or participating in voc-tech education could be partially attributed to the poor quality of fundamental education. The task was supply-driven and might not develop a strong linkage with economic sector requirements or align its activities with the requirements of the labour market. The status of the technical and employment education training system has stayed fundamentally the very same after task conclusion. The study put forward that ADB could encourage the Government of the Marshall Islands, through consultation and policy dialogue, to follow through on the government's
dedication to developing a devoted labour details system to link technical and professional education training program offerings with industry need. Although the job established a labour market information system, in the absence of internal staff capability at the National Training Council, it was not totally functional.
