dc.description.abstractThis study sought to investigate Technical Vocational Education and Training (TVET) in Ghana, which has emerged as one of the most effective human resource development strategies that African countries need to embrace in order to train and modernise their technical workforce for rapid industrialization and national development. The landscape of industry has been changing over time, it has and is still transforming with many tangents emerging. Currently, the TVET system faces a number of challenges, including quality outcomes. This paper explored the changing landscape of industry practice and the role TEVT can play in its development. A qualitative approach was used to collect data through a cluster sampling technique. The sample population comprise selected manufacturing industries in Ghana, TVET training institutions and selected graduates practicing their acquired skills from these institutions in the industry. Findings indicate some manufacturing houses were not equipping their businesses with sophisticated technologies because of the lack of skilled manpower to operate them.
