He said digitalisation was the new norm and every country was shifting to it to make gains in the Technical and Vocational sector.<\/p>\n<p>He gave the advice during a panel discussion at the second edition of the Future of Work dialogue series to reorient the youth on the importance of Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET).<\/p>\n<p>It was organised by the Participatory Development Associates (PDA) and the World University Service of Canada (WUSC) on the theme: \u201cDigitalisation in TVET: Challenges and Opportunities for Young People in Ghana.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The series brought together academicians, formal, non-formal and informal artisans. Mr Amegayibor said the awareness of the importance to utilise digitalisation and limit direct contact was spearheaded by the Covid-19 pandemic.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhat digitalisation can do today in terms of speed, and success, what you can achieve within a short time with digitalisation will take a long time to do manually,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>The Executive Secretary said the digitalisation would improve the learning and teaching of TVET in the country. \u201cTeachers do not need big classrooms to host people and teach. You can host them wherever they are and spread knowledge,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>The Executive Secretary noted that the youth were abusing the use of the internet at the detriment of their future hence he urged them to channel their \u201clittle\u201d resources to acquire new skills and knowledge on the internet. He commended Government\u2019s efforts in promoting TVET in the country.<\/p>\n<p>Mr Joshua Fugar, Technical Advisor, Deutsche Gesellschaft f\u00fcr Internationale Zusammenarbeit, said the challenges of TVET included lack of connectivity of internet to schools and inadequate resources for teaching and learning.<\/p>\n<p>He called for continuous awareness creation on TVET for more females to be involved. Mr Fugar urged artisans to sign up to the Government&#8217;s National TVET Qualification Framework (NTQF), which allowed those who opted for TVET to progress on a career development path.<\/p>\n<p>Mr Dodoo Quarshie, a Lecturer, Computer Science Department, Accra Technical University, urged the youth to be patient and take advantage of TVET and acquire skills to be employable.<\/p>\n<p>He advised artisans to corporate amongst themselves while acquiring new skills for a successful venture. Mr Quarshie encouraged them to \u201csee and accept\u201d challenges of their work as opportunities and resolve to address them.<\/p>\n<p>PDA is a social development, project management and advisory organisation that supports processes of empowerment self-determination in communities, organisations and individuals.
