Comparison of global indicators of competitiveness
Competitiveness Index in Higher Education and Training
Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET) has traditionally been analyzed
from the perspective of educational and labor policies. However, currently it is also
assessed from the perspective of productivity policies of businesses and
competitiveness policies of economies as a fundamental aspect of countries growth.

Average years of schooling
The positive relationship between GDP growth and average years of education
demonstrates the impact of education on productivity. In 1991, Barro demonstrated this
correlation for many countries. In 2013 he added that the correlation is stronger if
quality of education, as measured by standardized tests of knowledge in mathematics,
science and reading, is included.

Diagnosis of TVET in Latin America
Main problems of TVET in LA:
1. From coverage to quality:
Evolution of educational coverage in Latin America

2000
2012
Educational coverage has improved in Latin America in the last 30 years,
however there is still a lag in terms of quality of education and generation of
skills and competencies of the workforce compared to those required by
companies.
Main problems of TVET in LA:
1. Low quality of education

a workforce with adequate training is one of their main obstacles.

Recommendations to overcome the
challenges in Latin America
Recommendations for Latin America
1. Institutional weakness of TVET systems:
• Formulation of a strategic framework, sectoral convergence and coordination of
public policies: the different areas of government must converge in their strategic
objectives and articulate their programs and action plans in an efficient and
coordinated manner.
• Institutional strengthening of TVET management: assigning distinct functions
according to three institutional levels: one strategic and rector of the system, one for
administration and management, and one provider of educational services and
vocational training.
• Business participation: encourage private participation and involvement in the
development of sector plans, cluster or value chains, as well as curriculum design and
definition of competencies.
• Cluster and territorial approach, SME support and development of quality assurance
schemes, monitoring and evaluation.
2. Low quality of education:
• Teacher training in specific technical skills.
Recomendaciones para América Latina
3. Gap between supply and demand of labor skills:
• Integration of the education and training system: integration of curricula that
interrelate the initial training, continuing education, adult education and non-formal
education; coordination of training of teachers in both systems, among others.
• Enterprise training: implementation of educational experiences that combine
theoretical classroom learning and experiential learning in enterprises (dual training).
4. Low investment in training by firms:
• Design of incentives and other mechanisms to encourage higher levels of training in
businesses, for example, tax incentives, creation of funds for the development of
human capital, etc.
Main recommendation: promoting competencies (qualifications) certification
as a mechanism for comprehensive solution of linkage between sectors and
processes.
System of training and certification of competencies
System management:
Scenario where the tripartite
social dialogue and agreement
process is verified on the
legitimacy and
representativeness of the
system.
Sectoral level:
Comprised of employers
and workers in a specific
sector. Development of
performance standards and
certification. Quality
assurance.
