Description 

The goal of this project is to provide the Ministry of Social Welfare and Labour (MSWL) with knowledge and tools to help the ministry improve and expand its technical and vocational training and workplace safety training programs. The project supports a study tour to Canada for officials from the MSWL. During the study tour, the officials learn about various Canadian approaches to technical and vocational training, Canadian occupational health and safety training programs, and how workplace safety is integrated into technical and vocational education and training. The Mongolian officials have the opportunity to discuss safety and training issues with Canadian employers, particulary in the extractive industries, and to meet with provincial government officials to learn about government priorities and practices.

Expected results 

The expected results for this project include: ten officials from Mongolia's Ministry of Social Welfare and Labour are equipped with knowledge about Canada's approach to technical and vocational education and training that can be applied in Mongolia.
