Coordination  of VET

As a regulator, VETA coordinates and supports VET provision to ensure training provided is of the required quality and meets the demand of the labour market. VETA therefore develops curricula, occupational unit standards, Training and Learning Elements, and conducts examinations and certification. 

The Authority coordinates more than 860 vocational training centres in the country, providing training in more than 90 different long course skills and various tailor made short courses. VETA also conducts Labour Market Surveys to determine demand for training. Labour Market reports are used in developing curricula for vocational training centres.

VETA owns 22 vocational training centres distributed in 20 of the 21 political regions of Tanzania Mainland. In addition that there are more than 840 providers which are non-VETA owned. The ownership of vocational training in Tanzania can be divided into three groups namely: (a) Government, (b) Private and (c) NGOs.
