Job Description
The Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) GmbH is an international cooperation enterprise for sustainable development with worldwide operations on behalf of the German Government. We work to shape a future worth living in over 120 countries around the world.
The Indonesian government places a high priority on improving the quality and quantity of TVET. This initiative is mainly driven by the fact that despite the positive economic growth rates, the development of the labour market falls short of the Indonesian government’s expectation. Although the unemployment rate fell from 6.1% to 4.1% in 2012-2016 and that of youth unemployment from 19.5% to 15.4%, the 15-24 age group still represents the majority of the non-employed labour force at 58%. Furthermore, the open unemployment rate of graduates of TVET secondary schools (SMKs) in August 2017 is still high (23%, 1,621,402; source: BPS, 15 Dec 2017). The Indonesian government is, therefore, aiming for an extensive modernisation and expansion of the TVET system. The project TVET System Reform 2.0 (TSR 2.0) is a follow-on project, a joint effort between the Coordinating Ministry of Economic Affairs (CMEA) and the German Development Cooperation through GIZ, aiming at supporting the implementation of key elements of the Indonesian Government’s reform agenda on technical and vocational education and training (TVET).
The German and Indonesian Government are committed to implement a cooperation with the aim to support the Indonesian Government to implement key elements of the Indonesian Government’s National TVET Strategy. TVET System Reform 2.0 (TSR 2.0) Project implements the activities at 2 level, national and sub national level, i.e. in the national level, TSR Project support to strengthen the capacities of the National TVET Committee (KNV) to fulfil its mandate. The results hypothesis is as follows: Mandated by the Presidential Staff Office, KNV will submit proposals for harmonizing the divergent regulations in legislative procedures. In this way, overlapping responsibilities of the ministries involved are resolved and policy recommendations for a future oriented design of the VET system are formulated on the basis of a central data analysis. The intention is for the private sector to play a proactive, self-confident role in KNV and in sectoral TVET committee.
