<section><p class="heading jdMain">Job Description</p><p class="heading">Roles & Responsibilities</p><div class="paragraph"><p>The project aims to strengthen the national TVET ecosystem, respond to labour market needs, and address youth unemployment and gender disparities. It supports the Ministry of Education's (MoE) ongoing TVET reforms as outlined in the Education Strategic Plan <strong>2020-2025</strong> and the recent BTEC based vocational education reform, offering Level 2 and 3 certifications across multiple specializations. The TA project is supporting MoE s TVET reforms through three key areas, namely: (i) strengthening key institutional and policy elements of the national skills ecosystem for a better enabling institutional and policy environment; (ii) enhancing skills development in priority sectors for young women and men through innovation in TVET; and (iii) improving the perception of TVET while advancing gender inclusivity and equity for all students to become a more attractive pathway for girls and boys in Jordan. Under Output 1.2.1, UNESCO is providing technical assistance to MoE to review and strengthen career guidance systems and tools in schools. This includes reviewing current systems and tools, enhancing the model for the provision of gender sensitive and inclusive career guidance, developing/adapting tools and resources, and training relevant personnel on the updated system, tools and resources. The Career Guidance Review, led by UNESCO with the support of the career guidance expert, assessed existing career guidance and counselling systems, tools and practices in Jordan s TVET sector and provided actionable recommendations for strengthening these services in alignment with national and international standards and priorities. Building on this work and following the development of the Career Guidance Model and Manual, there is a need to operationalize the model through a structured Training of Trainers (ToT) programme. This assignment is therefore not intended to create a new career guidance model. Rather, it will support MoE in institutionalizing and applying the developed Career Guidance Model and Manual through a practical ToT package and training process. The ToT will help build a core group of MoE trainers and relevant staff who can support consistent application of the manual in vocational education schools and contribute to future roll-out and scale up. This assignment falls under the Technical Assistance Programme implemented by UNESCO, which supports the delivery of Output 1.2.1: Technical assistance to MoE to review and strengthen career guidance systems and tools in schools. Specifically, the assignment contributes to Activity 1.2.1.4: Training of relevant personnel on the updated career guidance system, tools and resources, and supports Activity 1.2.1.5: Organising workshops and experience/information sharing sessions on the updated career guidance system for vocational education schools and gender responsive approaches in guidance processes for girls and boys. In line with this, UNESCO Amman Office seeks a qualified individual expert/consultant to design and deliver a ToT programme on the Career Guidance Model and Manual for selected MoE staff, supervisors, counsellors, and/or other relevant vocational education stakeholders. The consultant will ensure: • Development of a practical ToT design and training package aligned with the Career Guidance Model and Manual, MoE priorities, and the TVET reform context. • Delivery of a ToT that enables selected MoE participants to understand, facilitate, and support the use of the Career Guidance Model and Manual in vocational education schools. • Integration of gender-sensitive and inclusive career guidance approaches , labour market information, TVET/BTEC pathways, and links with work-based learning and employer engagement where relevant. • Documentation of training outcomes, participant feedback, lessons learned, and recommendations for future roll-out and scale up. </p><p><br></p><p><span >DUTIES/TASKS AND EXPECTED OUTPUT: The consultant will collaborate closely with the Ministry of Education and UNESCO s program team: To initiate efforts in this area, the expert/consultant will undertake the following tasks: 1. ToT Planning and Alignment Conduct consultations with UNESCO and relevant MoE counterparts to confirm the target participants, training objectives, delivery modality, duration, and expected post training application. The consultant will review the Career Guidance Model and Manual and translate its content into a practical ToT structure, ensuring alignment with MoE systems, existing counsellor roles, vocational education schools, and the broader TVET reform context. 2.
