About MoES:
The Government of Uganda represented by the Ministry of Education and
Sports (MoES) and supported by World Bank 
and the Government of Belgium initialed a process to formulate a ten
year BTVET Strategic Plan (Skilling Uganda) in 2009. This denotes a paradigm
shift for skills development in Uganda with the overall aim of transforming the
BTVET system from an Educational Sub-Sector into a comprehensive System of
Skills development for employment, enhanced productivity, and growth. The main
purpose will be to create employable skills and competencies relevant to the
labour market instead of educational Certificates. It will embrace all Ugandans
in need of skills, not only primary and Secondary School leavers. Skills will
enable the Country to expand and grow. Employers in Uganda often complain about
skills shortages that constrain production and expansion. Large segments of the
population, including those working in the informal sector, lack skills they
need to raise themselves out of poverty. The economy faces critical skills gap
that threaten to limit the growth of key sectors, including agriculture and
energy.
The Strategic Plan recommends the establishment of the Reform Task
Force (RTF) and its Secretariat to oversee and manage the implementation of the
plan until a permanent integrated Skills Development Authority (SDA) is
established.
