The contributions of the project to the institutional development of the E-TVET Sector must be widely disseminated in the remaining project implementation time. The DCU is to conduct dissemination activities around the tools and procedures developed and delivered by the project to raise stakeholders’ awareness and understanding, and to encourage adoption of such tools in moving towards a more employer-driven orientation of the sector. The Bank Team will continue to provide intensive implementation support over the remaining 6 months of the project's life (four months at the time of writing this ISR). Next mission is scheduled for September 2013 and will include a discussion of the upcoming Implementation Completion report.
