Mentoring support to the team of trainers on capacity building of School Advisory Board members in Lebanon

The Lebanese Minister of Education issued a resolution to establish a School Advisory Board (SAB) in TVET institutions to enhance cooperation between education and employers, as foreseen in the National Strategic Framework for TVET. The SAB assures the relevance of the TVET programmes to the community and the business world and guides the TVET schools towards developing competences that are and will be required on the labour market, to foster graduates’ employability.

The current mentoring support to the team of trainers on capacity building of School Advisory Board members in Lebanon is a follow up activity aiming to build on the results of a series of training courses on building the capacities of SAB members, including the blended course on Training of Trainers for capacity building of SAB members in Lebanon.
