Project Description:
The overall objective of this technical assistance is to develop a strategic framework for the development of tertiary education to achieve complementary and synergies between the higher education and TVET subsectors. The expected outcome is the agreed-upon design of the Strengthening Higher and Vocational Education Project suitable for ADB financing as well as policy recommendations. This project is ADB?s first technical assistance to the higher education sector of Mongolia. It is aligned with the Government?s long term National Development Strategy until 2020, which highlights the importance of strengthening the country's higher education system. It is also in line the Government's Education Sector Master Plan (2005-2025) that has underscored among other challenges, the need to develop market- and demand- based technical vocational education and training (TVET) and higher education programs.
