These include Namibia, Zambia, DR Congo and Malawi. In Botswana BEAR is focusing on the tourism industry which the government sees as "a strategic sector for generating foreign exchange, attracting FDI, creating employment and reducing particularly in the rural areas.
Of late, Botswana is on the 2nd phase of the project which involves Curriculum Development and labour market analysis, Capacity building, management of information systems and Monitoring progress. The BEAR project is carried out with cooperation from The Korea Republic.

Public-Private Partnership encouraged in growth of Technical Vocational Education and Training

Director of Harvey World Travel, Mr. Stanley Timuhwe has hailed the efforts being made by the government in ensuring partnerships between the Public and Private sectors in raising the standards of Technical Vocational Education and Training. Speaking at the launch of the Better Education for Africa's Rise at Gaborone Technical College earlier today, Mr. Timuhwe mentioned that the synergy was important for the production of students who are ready for the industry as they will be more skills based than knowledge based. He however bemoaned the lack of passion mostly in industry that has led to poor service delivery thereby giving a bad image to TVET students on their marketability.

Defending champions Francistown SS could not make it to this year's edition of the competition citing financial challenges. The winning quartet, of Innocent Gabanakgosi, Potlako Kgobe, Ame Motlhanke and Aobakwe Motudu shruuged off the challenge from Mogoditshane, Kagiso and Mater Spei senior secondary schools to register a hard win. Speaking after the competition, Aobakwe attributed their win to the dedication they had put to the competition noting that they had forked out their savings to finance the transport costs to Gaborone from Kanye. in the girls category, Mogoditshane senior secondary claimed the first prize winning it a second time since the inauguration of the tournament.
