Vocational Challenges in South Sudan

Before war broke out in the Sudan, the Southern part of Sudan had few vocational institutions. These institutions award students with certificates or diplomas of nine months or two years, but the areas argeted were capentry and joinery centres, technical commercial schools, industrial techincal centre, neglecting other crafts work such as potterry, basketery..etc. However, there is a growing needs of vocational training for youth.

  5. Hello Justine,
    Of course, the first module has really paved the way for understanding of vocational education and learning in a wider perspective,and with module two, I have felt the change is approaching wihin the way learning is facilitated which will be the benefit for vocational learners back in Sudan
