No 18, Policy Research Working Paper Series from The World Bank

Abstract: China has embarked on a series of reforms designed to improve the efficiency of productive enterprises through the introduction of elements of a competitive market economy. Vocational and technical education and training (VTE) is to be expanded and improved to meet the skilled labor requirements of a changing economy. The efficiency of the VTE system in meeting changing requirements for skilled labor depends in large part on effective planning and linkages with employment. This study analyzes VTE planning and labor market linkages in the context of the economic reforms, and in comparison with the vocational education and training systems in other countries.
