As the economic growth and social development of a nation is reliant on its workforce, it is essential to increase the workforce's employability through technical and vocational education. Through these programs, the nation's workers will be able to acquire skills and flexibility in order to navigate across sectors of the economy and industry. However, due to gender disparities and socioeconomic statuses within society, women from lower economic backgrounds are unable to gain access to these programs, hindering their career development and economic independence. This title probes the issue of gender equity in specialized educational programs, such as vocational or technical education programs and presents global initiatives for access to technical and vocational education programs. Covers vocational and training programs and gender equity through skill development. For academicians, researchers, social scientists, educators, policymakers, government officials, and professionals.
