The objective of the proposed Technical Cooperation is to provide technical assistance to the Ministry of Education, Youth, Sports and Culture to close the skills gap in renewable energies in Belize by upgrading traditional TVET from the current basic trades training to offering advanced training in this area. The specific objectives are to: (i) create and pilot a renewable energy program at the Belize City ITVET; and (ii) promote Belize as a regional laboratory for innovation in training methodologies for renewable energy professionals in the English-speaking Caribbean.
