1. PROJECT DESCRIPTION

The Asian Development Bank’s (ADB) approved the Technical and Vocational Education and Training Sector Development Project (TVETSDP) on 26 September 2014, in the amount of Special Drawing Rights (SDR) 19,428,000 (USD 30 million equivalent). This comprised of a policy-based loan (USD 7 million equivalent) and a project loan (USD 23 million equivalent). The project became effective in 9 January 2015.

On 17 June 2015, the AFD Board of Directors approved additional co-financing loan of USD 15 million, to be administered by ADB. Building on the existing program design, the additional co-financing scaled up activities under the investment part of the current program, without any change to the policy-based component of the current program and maintaining the original policy matrix and disbursement triggers. This additional loan focusses on upgrading learning environments and the capacity of TVET instructors, and providing stipends to disadvantaged students.

TVETSDP will support the Royal Government of Cambodia (RGC) to address equity and quality issues facing the technical vocational education and training (TVET) system through:

• Increased access to TVET programs, particularly for women and the poor;

• Improved quality and relevance of the TVET system;

• Increased involvement of employers in technical and vocational education and training delivery; and

• Strengthened governance and management of TVET delivery.

The Project supports RGC’s commitment to the development of high-quality, skilled and capable human resources in order to meet the immediate and long-term needs of economic growth and socio-economic development.

The impact of the Project will be increased employability of TVET certified workers. The outcome of the Project will be an accessible, demand-driven TVET system responsive to continuing and emerging labor market demands.

The project will deliver four outputs: (i) increased access to TVET programs, particularly for women and the poor; (ii) improved quality and relevance of the TVET system; (iii) increased involvement of employers in TVET delivery; and (iv) strengthened governance and management of the TVET system.

Sub-output 2.1: Strengthening TVET Quality Assurance System. Most activities under this sub-output have been completed. Based on the results from the piloted external audit of 38 public TVET institutes, the Department of Quality Assurance (DQA) has formulated follow-up plans to follow up with the training institutes, which have scored low, to improve their performance in those criteria where the institutions have scored low. The study tour to build knowledge on QA system will be combined with other learning opportunities such as Sector Skill Councils (SSC) and Assessment Centers Management. The draft of ToR including the cost estimates will be ready and shared with ADB in Q2, 2019.

As agreed during the Review Mission on 4 – 14 December 2018, a proposal to develop the QA system to accredit the programs offered will be discussed during the mid-term review of the project.

Sub-output 2.2: Establishment of TVET competency-based assessment and certification system.

Department of Standards and Curriculum and TVETSDP consultant identified a list of potential competency assessors on 7 March 2019 as part of the preparations to pilot CBA/RPL/RCC after completion of the development of Competency-based Assessment Tools (CAT).

Criteria for establishment and accreditation of assessment centers and criteria for identification and accreditation of assessors was approved by the NTB Sub-committee on 28 March 2019. DSC with DGTVET will issue a notification letter to all the public institutions in April 2019 inviting the TTIs to submit proposals to apply to be assessment

Projected vs. Actual Contract Awards and Disbursements. This has continued to be a major challenge as the project tries to match the original targets in the PAM on contracts awards and disbursements. If the major consulting firm and TA had been appointed and in place close to the start-up date there may have been some chance of meeting the PAM targets. With a delay of 15 months in the deployment of the PIC and the two replacements of the team leader, meeting the projected contracts award and disbursement is difficult. However, during the last month of this reporting quarter, there has been considerable momentum in boosting the contracts award and disbursement as reflected by the disbursement of $2 million in this quarter. This momentum has to be maintained up to and beyond the mid-term review.

Average Physical Progress. The total time elapsed as of March 31, 2019 is approximately 50.5 months or 60.48% from date of effectiveness. Actual project operation has been going for about 40 months or 47% of the total implementation period. The average physical progress of the different outputs and sub-outputs as of 31 March 2019 is 56.72% compared to 52.73% as of 31 December 2018 (Table 26). These figures indicate that the improved pace of implementation is steadily closing the gap between actual achievement and the elapsed time period. With key expenditure programs, specifically SBP, VSTP, Start-up Cost, and stipend, now being rolled out and procurement of civil works and services being accelerated, the physical progress is expected to significantly increase by the end of 2019.

3.5 Good Governance Framework

The Good Governance framework is being applied in managing the TVETSDP. The framework identifies 8 elements in which quality of governance of the project will be monitored and evaluated including: (i) procurement; (ii) financial management; (iii) disclosures; (iv) complaints and remedies mechanism; (v) civil society organizations and private sector roles; (vi) code of ethical conduct; (vii) sanctions; and (viii) project specific elements. The status of TVETSDP governance as of 31 March 2019 is in Appendix 5. Most of the actions needed to mitigate the risk due to potential issues in each of the elements are being complied with. 3.6 Monitoring and Evaluation Framework

Design and Monitoring Framework (DMF). The project DMF has been expanded to enable more detailed monitoring of all outcome and output/sub-output indicators against baselines on a quarterly and cumulative basis (Appendix 6). The DMF indicators deal with final outputs and do not give indication of the processes and steps involved in arriving at such final outputs. In order to have a better picture of the status of a particular output/sub-output, the DMF should be read in conjunction with Appendix 1.

Monitoring and Evaluation Matrix. To complement the DMF which will collect primarily quantitative and milestones data, a monitoring and evaluation matrix has been designed to gather more in-depth qualitative information behind the numbers (Appendix 7). The combination of these two instruments will provide a more complete picture of project performance. Currently however, not many qualitative insights could be gathered as most of the activities have commenced only this year or this quarter. 3.7 Loan Covenants

All provisions of the Loan Covenants have been complied with so far. The updated status as of 31 March 2019 is in Appendix 8. 3.8 ADB Review Mission Follow-up Actions

An ADB/AFD review mission on TVETSDP was conducted on 4 – 14 December 2018. The aide memoire included a list of follow-up actions to be carried out. ADB and AFD conducted technical meetings with project teams on 29 March and 1 April 2019 to discuss the interim progress and to prepare for the mid-term review mission which is scheduled in late May 2019. The status of follow-up actions as of 31 March 2019 is in Appendix 9.

32

3.9 Problems and Issues Encountered and Action Taken Streamlining of procedures and closer coordination among the parties involved

and more follow-up on the activities, more effective implementation and acceleration of all remaining procurement activities are the major challenged faced by project. However, these issues are being addressed and there has been significant progress during this quarter. This momentum needs to be maintained till the end of 2019. 4. PLANS FOR THE NEXT QUARTER

A summary of plans of activities by sub-outputs and cross-cutting themes for Q2 2019 is given below in Table 28.

Appendix 10: SUMMARY OF MINUTES MEETING OF SSC

SSC Construction Venue: CoE/NPIA, Siem Reap Province Date: 28th February 2019 Participants: 8 persons (F=0), 3 of them are from private sectors. Process of the meeting: The meeting was very well organized by the NPIA and also participated by private sectors. The meeting is about the history of the establishment the CoE. The meeting was facilitated by Mr. Mob Sinoun the Director of NPIA . Discussion: The meeting discussed the shortcomings and good points of the private sector, which should be shared and integrated in the NPIA curriculum to encourage more effective teaching-learning for students. The key points of the discussion have been highlighted hereunder: The SSC operates and encourages private partners to become members and work closely with the Center for Excellence in priority occupation and developing CBT curriculum. In future, the Center of Excellence should be a resource center to showcase students, teachers, equipment, advanced technology tools used by NPIA, for other students, teachers and the public to see and know about the use of technology and to be attracted to the TVET sector. Strengthening the skills of the skilled managers is very important nowadays. They need to improve their work ethics, discharge their responsibilities properly, manage their time effectively management, possess communication skills and work as members of the team. Therefore, a short-term training course incorporating the above is very much needed for skilled workers and managers. Inspirational training in creative thinking, creativity, to care for the company assets, and so forth should also be included. These are the requirements of most companies, therefore, the curriculum and lessons must be organized to impart these skills so that the graduates are more employable. The success of any institute definitely depends on the institute's quality of training. There are a large number of jobs in the construction sector, which lack specialists, such as surveyors, engineers etc., and if the the institute lacks these experts, Kamtranship Co., Ltd, experts can provide training on these skills, and helps teach teachers and other students. The Chair mentioned that the issues raised by the private sector are very important to address. The institute will arrange a separate curriculum for the workers, supervisors or engineers of the company, and ask the company to provide additional support. Teacher training (short courses of 5 to 10 days should be organized as part of in-service training. The fast technological development and the demands of the 21st century industry and Industrial Revolution 4.0 demands that all of us work hard to improve ourselves so that we do not become obsolete in terms of the skills we possess. We should be fully aware that with integrated Internet and Smart Digital and industrial system, more and more human work will be replaced by by Smart Robots. It was agreed that the meeting be conducted every quarter. _______________________________________________________

SSC Electrical works Venue: CoE/PPI Phnom Penh Date: 20th March 2019 Participants: 25 persons (F=3), 10 of them are from private sectors. Process of the meeting: The meeting was very well organized by the PPI and also participated by members of the private sector. The meeting started with discussing the history of the establishment the CoE. Discussion: The meeting was facilitated by HE Dr Taing Yoeurn, the Director of PPI. He welcomed and was happy to meet PPI industrial partners, who are committed to work with the Institute to identify the priority occupations in ths electrical sector where competency-based training (CBT) packages comprising competency standards, curriculum, learning materials, and assessment tools, which have been developed according to the Cambodia Qualification Framework (CQF) need to be implemented. The institute has offer training programs in response to labor market demands; and appreciated the support by the private sector in the development of CBT packages for priority occupations by industry experts from member enterprises by participating in technical working groups facilitated by DGTVET; The meeting also discussed on the shortcomings and good points of the SSC for Electrical, which is responsible for operation of one of Cambodia’s priority sector, SSC needs to provide advice and direction in capacity development and effectiveness of TVET system in Cambodia established at COE PPI, and PPI is committed to work very closely with the private sector to close the gap between supply and demand by improvement of the curriculum at PPI. The meeting also discussed about implementing the RIS program. Distribution of RIS trainees across the skills sectors is dependent on a number of factors, including the technical background of the potential Master trainers already identified, the need to cover highest priority areas in the pilot program, and the distribution of current occupational courses and trainers in public TVET institutions. Nowadays, the technological development demands that all of us work hard to investigate the process of training to ensure the graduates we produce are employment ready and as per the need of the labor market. The meeting also agreed to have a meeting every quarter, with the next meeting will be in June 2019. The meeting finished on the same date at 11:30. ______________________________________________________________

SSC Automotive Venue: CoE/BIT, Battambang Province Date: 29th March 2019 Participants: 12 persons (F=3), with 2 from the private sector. Process of the meeting: The meeting was very well organized by the BIT and also participated by the private sectos. The meeting started with a discussion on the establishment and purpose of the CoE as well the establishment of SSC. The meeting was facilitated by Mr. Uk Davanndy the Director of BIT. Discussion: After a presentation by deputy director, the discussion focused on getting advice/ideas to improve the center and core work of the BIT program as whole. The private sector representatives shared some good examples of student interns, who have been working with the private company and stated that the students are very committed and willing to learn more during their daily work at the workshop. Few of them are very fast learners, which enable them to work full time with the companies in Battambang province. But some students do not really have good at attitude in terms of daily practice as they are more engaged on face book or listening to music. In this regard, the representatives of the private sector suggested that BIT should consider imparting soft skill training before students are sent on internship or to do undertake volunteer work. The participants were very happy with the 7 business plans presented by deputy director as these were very much relevant to the current requirement by customers; however, there was some suggestion that it is not important for everyone to know all the 7 business plan, but they should focus on one or two business plans, which they can continue based on their willingness and commitment. The 7 business plans relate to: Automotive Servicing, Automotive electrical servicing, Auto air conditioner servicing, Motorcycle servicing Automotive body painting Automotive body repairing Automotive engine rebuilding BIT should engage/network with other private sectors in order to have more knowledge and for experiences sharing with students. There should be a half day/one-day workshop for invited mechanics experts to share their practical knowledge and experience with students in “experience-sharing workshops”. Finally, the meeting agreed to increase the number of expert members from the private sectors to join and share their knowledge and experiences. Next meeting will be tentatively on June 2019, but the date will be confirmed. _________________________________________________________________
