Description

Definition
Technical/vocational course or technical-vocational education and training (TVET) is defined as: "the education or training process that involves, in addition to general education, the study of technologies and related sciences and the acquisition of practical skills relating to occupations in various sectors of economic and social life". Per the 2008 Philippine Standard Classification of Education (PSCED), TVET is equivalent to Post-secondary Non-tertiary/Technical-Vocational Education (Level 4), i.e. enrollees/graduates of 3-month to 3-year vocational education courses.
