. The Marshall Islands: Skills Training and Vocational Education Project Assesses the performance of the project and highlights lessons. Offers inputs to two more comprehensive assessments- the regional assessment of ADB assistance for the Pacific and the unique evaluation study on Millennium Development Goals. The low instructional achievement and lack of Marshallese skilled workers were largely due to the poor quality of fundamental education, lack of access to education in the external islands, and weaknesses in skills training and the vocational and technical education system.

These supported an economy marked by high joblessness because of constrained private sector growth and federal government downsizing. Unemployment was especially high amongst the youth and ladies in the outer islands. Appropriate regional skilled workers for existing job vacancies
were not available, thus the importation of properly skilled foreign employees. Therefore, there was a mismatch in between readily available jobs and skills of the Marshallese labour force. These conditions provided the effort for the Government
of the Marshall Islands to focus on technical and trade education training reforms. In 2000, ADB authorized a loan for $9.1 million to improve abilities training to supply well-trained workers needed for sustained economic and social development. This was to be attained through an integrated nationwide abilities training system. The job consisted of 4 components: advancement of a profession awareness program, abilities training enhancement, improved abilities training opportunities for females and youth, and institutional strengthening. The anticipated result was increased income-generating opportunities and work for trainees, especially women and youth in the outer islands. In general, the job was rated not successful. Restricted development was attained in making the project responsive to the requirements of its beneficiaries and private-sector companies. The long-standing weakness of poor numeracy and literacy proficiencies
amongst public primary and secondary school graduates and dropouts getting in college or going to voc-tech education could be partially credited to the poor quality of basic education. The job was supply-driven and could not establish a strong linkage with economic sector requirements or align its activities with the requirements of the labour market. The status of the technical and professional education training system has actually stayed basically the same after job completion. The research study put forward that ADB might motivate the Government of the Marshall Islands, through consultation and policy dialogue, to follow through on the federal government's
commitment to developing a devoted labour info system to link technical and vocational education training program offerings with market need. Although the task set up a labour market details system, in the lack of internal staff ability at the National Training Council, it was not fully functional.
