    Description
    The Ministry of Labour and Employment Promotion of Peru requested SOCIEUX+ support in view to enhance its capacity to assess the quality and impact of vocational education and training (VET) programmes deployed at the regional level, as the competences, obligations and responsibilities for the design, implementation and evaluation of VET are entirely transferred to the Regions. Mobilized experts from France and Spain have first carried out an inventory and a characterization of the VET existing initiatives. They have thus elaborated a system for monitoring the VET initiatives based on three levels: macro (responding to national priorities and regulations), meso (conceiving a practical role for regional officers to intervene in the deployment of VET), and micro (in relation with private firms and companies supplying employment opportunities).
