| description | For the last 50 years, the Turkish
Cypriot community (TCc) has remained outside the effective
control of the government of the Republic of Cyprus (RoC).
The community displays typical characteristics and
challenges of a small island economy, and after years of
rapid growth and income convergence, it is unlikely to
replicate its pre-2009 economic performance in the medium
term. Sound macroeconomic policies and structural reforms,
thus, become all the more crucial if the community is to
regain the growth momentum of the early-2000s and address
some of the labor market issues. Structural reforms should,
among other things, aim to remove barriers to an expanding
private sector, and strengthen domestic and external market
competitiveness. To do this, the Turkish Cypriot community
needs to better align its workforce and Workforce
Development (WfD) policies to the needs of the labor market
and of the private sector in particular.This study aims to
assess the TCc’s overall WfD system. Where shortcomings are
identified, the study offers suggestions on how to improve
the quality and relevance of the skills produced by the
community’s workforce system, including Technical Vocational
Education and Training (TVET) at the secondary and
postsecondary level, and on-the-job learning. This report
presents a comprehensive diagnostic of a WfD system’s
policies and institutions. |
