Information and communications technology (ICT) brings both challenges and opportunities to technical and vocational education and training (TVET). Digital technologies have changed how organizations work, creating new jobs and replacing others. For workers, this means reskilling themselves in order to thrive in a high-tech working environment. For educators, this means integrating ICT in skills development, not just in the course materials but also in course delivery. Technology can make it easier to deliver TVET to more people
