New Drivers of change and trends
in TVET: Global perspective
New Drivers of change and trends in
TVET: Global perspective
Trend 1: Demographic changing
Aging, migration bring changing in labor
force
Changing Population Structure. Increase
in average life span and declining birthrates
are creating aging societies, as well as
increasingly urbanized populations, which
leads to greater disparities between urban
and rural.
New Drivers of change and trends
in TVET: Global perspective
Trend 2: Economic Globalization
Changing global value chain requires new
thinking
Economic Globalization is another clear
trend. Capital, talent and knowledge
continue to flow around the world faster and
faster, while the influence of international
organizations
and
multi-national
corporations also continues to increase.
New Drivers of change and trends
in TVET: Global perspective
Trend 3: Internet Everywhere
Virtual activities lead new business models
and norms
Ubiquitous Internet. The influence of the
burgeoning development of the internet on the
future global economy grows deeper every day.
Because the Net creates unlimited business
opportunities, its assault on established legal,
social, and cultural norms will be even more clear
than it has for the past ten years. The explosive
growth in the quality and quantity of information
available, as well as information security, will

Trend 4: Cross-disciplinary
technology integration
Integration aims for innovations based on
user needs
Cross-disciplinary
Technology
Integration.
In
terms
of
industrial
development,
individual
technologies
already cannot satisfy needs, driving the
creation
of
major
cross-disciplinary
technology integrations that are more and
more strongly connected to social and
human aspirations.
New Drivers of change and trends
in TVET: Global perspective
Trend 5: Environmentalism
Value environment / low-impact
manufacturing
Agile Manufacturing and environmental
concerns. Raising precision manufacturing
ability with increasing automation and
flexibility has already become a main
method of competition between countries
facing labor shortages. This kind of agile
manufacturing is also necessary to meet
today's need for commodities of various
New Drivers of change and trends

Trend 6: Natural Resource usage
efficiency
Sustainable usage and allocation
Natural Resource Usage Efficiency. Over
the next ten years resources such as water,
oil and food will continue to have different
degrees of influence. How to reasonably and
efficiency
utilize
water
resources,
successfully develop alternative energy
sources and stabilize food supplies, will be
key factors for increasing economic growth

Knowledge based economy
Distinct challenges for TVET, in
terms of acclimatizing to;
Financial restructuring as Asia-pacific regional countries
Competition in education and training markets as citizens
seek the best educational opportunities, especially with
entry of foreign education providers in the domestic
market
The access and exit of skills embodied in people due to
migration flows.
Climate Change &
Sustainable Development
TVET being major resource consumer
takes on a complex and distinctive
character with regard to sustainable
development. TVET constantly included
elements of sustainability, especially in
the way scarce training materials were
conserved and waste materials were
disposed.
Example: Overconsumption of such consumer
Climate Change &
Sustainable
Development
For TVET programs to be part of the solution
and not part of the problem; they must be
reoriented so that they contribute to sustainable
development worldwide.
Koichiro Matsuura
Director-General of UNESCO
TVET must be the masker key that can
alleviate poverty, promote peace, conserve the
environment, improve the quality of life for all
and help to achieve sustainable development.
Bonn declaration (2004)
Information Revolution
New developments in information technologies
have opened up new prospective in teaching and
learning. ICTs need to be harnessed, to provide
more widespread access to TVET. However, due to
the impact of ICT on education, there are issues to
interrogate:
1. How will ICT developments impact our educational practice?
2. Will we experience a drastic change in teaching and learning
strategies?
3. Will we adopt a new learning paradigm in the next decade or
two?

Impact of Global Economy on
Learning
Build the capacity of TVET Educators to
be enhanced so as to make them aware
of the potential of ICT in education and
training the learners of tomorrow.
Education and Training of knowledge workers
requires different educational policies, facilities,
curricula and, above all, teachers.
- Rupert Maclean and Ada Lai (2011)
Impact of Global Economy on
Learning
Educators must be transformed from those who
impart knowledge to those who facilitate learning.
Curricula must be transformed from mechanisms to
deliver facts into mechanisms to promote and
facilitate learning and thinking.
Experts assert that a Competencybased Approach to curriculum
development can facilitate this
transformation.
