  "content": "Ethiopia is accelerating its efforts to build a skilled technical workforce through a growing partnership with China in vocational education. This is reported by Fana Media Corporation (FMC), a partner of TV BRICS.\n\n\nA key milestone is the launch of the \"Chinese + Vocational Skills\" programme at the Federal Technical and Vocational Training Institute (FTVTI) in Addis Ababa. This initiative combines international expertise with local priorities, aiming to equip Ethiopian youth with hands-on skills essential for industrial transformation and long-term development.\n\nA team of experienced Chinese instructors from institutions such as Xuchang Vocational Technical College, Luohe Medical College, and Luohe Vocational Technical College has arrived in Ethiopia to help implement the programme. They bring expertise in fields like vehicle maintenance, traditional Chinese medicine rehabilitation, food inspection, and mechanical engineering. \n\nIn addition to curriculum development, Chinese businesses operating in Ethiopia are collaborating with FTVTI to establish training centres within enterprises. This model is tailored to meet the workforce demands of both local industries and Chinese-funded projects in the country. \n\nAccording to the publication, the approach is expected to ease critical skills shortages and support Ethiopia’s push towards industrial growth. However, beyond labour development, the partnership is expected to promote cultural exchange and strengthen Ethiopia's role in the Belt and Road Initiative.",
