Need for a demand focus
ADB, 2008, Skilling the Pacific: Technical and Vocational Education and
Training in the Pacific, p 127.
Demand for skills
not easy to identify
• Labour market information (LMI) systems can
help training systems to adjust to changing
needs. However, care should be taken in
supporting the establishment of LMI
systems. They have proved very difficult to
make successful. Design of and investments in
LMI systems should be preceded by a careful
analysis of their operational problems and
constraints in third world countries (ADB, 2004,
p92)

often complex

user have skilled & experienced,
operational-level staff as well as an
efficient administration and
management structure
• Funding and skills more likely to be
sustainable at a regional level.
What type of Labour
Market Information?
• Need to be clear first about the use for
the labour market information.
