Doha, Qatar: The Ministry of Education and Higher Education (MoEHE) is working to support STEM and TVET based education and training by increasing technical and vocational schools, said a top official. STEM stands for Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics and TVET is Technical and Vocational Education and Training.
Undersecretary of the Ministry of Education and Higher Education Dr. Ibrahim bin Saleh Al Nuaimi said that the Ministry is also developing educational tracks, integrating STEM subjects into basic curricula, linking them, and encouraging technical and vocational education and training. He noted that the initiative will help students to acquire important scientific and practical experiences that help them enrol in the best universities and gives those who hold technical certificates the opportunity to complete their educational journey and use the advanced professional skills they have acquired to meet the needs of society.
Al Nuaimi was speaking atb the opening session of an “International Symposium on Education and Skills for a Future-Ready Workforce: STEM and TVET for a Sustainable and Resilient Society” which is being hosted by University of Doha for Science and Technology (UDST).
This seminar is being held in response to the decisions made by the Committee of Ministers of Higher Education and Scientific Research in the Gulf Cooperation Council countries to establish a forum for studying specialised fields that are required by the current and future job market.
The two-day conference brings together regional educational institutions, industry stakeholders and policymakers to initiate dialogue on the role of STEM and TVET education in creating an industry-ready workforce. The event also provides a platform to develop a GCC-wide approach to education and workforce mobility in the region.
