LAUNCH OF A TVET ONLINE TOOLKIT

We are seeking TVET institutions from the Pacific who are interested in applying an Online Toolkit to their institutions. COL will be providing a project design workshop and ongoing mentoring to selected institutions. Interested institutions can submit their Expression of Interest to pacificpartnership@col.org.
