Status Report on the Education Management Information Systems (EMIS) of Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET) in 12 countries in Latin America and the Caribbean

The main objective of the study is to analyze the current situation of the EMIS of TVET in Latin America and the Caribbean. To narrow the focus of the inquiry, we selected a representative sample of twelve countries in the region (Argentina, Brazil, Ecuador, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, Jamaica, Mexico, Paraguay, Peru, the Dominican Republic, and Trinidad and Tobago). Also discussed are the main features of the organization and availability of the programme. The first part briefly describes the methodology of the present report. The strategies adopted to collect information, and the steps taken to achieve the objectives of the investigation are also discussed in detail. The second section provides the conceptual framework of TVET and the various terms used in the countries of the region. It also compares the definitions of formal, non-formal and informal education. Indicators and data sets for TVET in an EMIS are proposed.
