The Private Sector plays a vital role in Skills Development; this includes participation in policy making, training delivery, provision of financing and sites for work-integrated learning and ensuring that innovation informs training programmes. 

The content of these guidelines is drawn from SIFA’s Private Sector Engagement (PSE) work across several regions on the African continent.

These Guidelines are for individuals, groups or enterprises in the private sector who want to get involved in skills development and technical and vocational education and training (TVET). These Guidelines suggest first steps for establishing productive relationships and collaborative interventions with other stakeholders in skills development.
