Education Development Center (EDC), a Boston-based NGO, has been
short-listed by the Asian Development Bank to develop a proposal to
assist the Government of Kyrgyz Republic to help them plan a project
to improve its emerging technical and vocational education and
training (TVET) system. SUMMARIZED, the project involves assessment
of the formal system, review of non-formal skills development,
identification of means to develop entrepreneurs, and improving the
capacity for private sector involvement. (Much more information is
available, but some people have to pay by the minute or the byte for
e-mail.)
Should our proposal be successful, we anticipate the need for
specialists in the following areas for ten weeks this coming summer:
-- education economics
-- formal TVET
-- non-formal skills training and development
-- small and medium enterprise development
-- public-private partnerships for skills development
-- social sector analysis and NGO development.
Applicants must be citizens of an ADB member nation (note: In addition
to countries in Asia, U.S., Canada, and most, if not all, EU countries
are also members). Knowledge of Russian a plus. EDC is an equal
opportunity employer, eager to provide our potential clients with the
best talent possible.
