ABOUT US
The Technical and Vocational Teacher's College (TVTC) was established in
July 1975 to provide Vocational Teacher Education.
In January 2000 TVTC was established as a management board through the
Technical Education, Vocational and Entrepreneurship Training Act No 13
of 1998. The College is an affiliate of the University of Zambia (UNZA)
and Copperbelt University (CBU); all College diplomas programmes are
underwritten by University of Zambia (UNZA). While all degree programmes
are underwritten by the Copperbelt University (CBU).
The College offers programmes on Full Time, Open and Distance Learning
and Short Courses. With the introduction of ICT curriculum in primary
and secondary schools, TVTC has responded to the needs of both teachers
and the Ministry of Education by introducing a Diploma in ICT for
Teachers. Other new programmes which have been introduced are Diploma in
Mathematics and Physics, Diploma in Mathematic and Chemistry and
English, Civic Education with Counselling.
The immediate challenge was to transform the College from a public
institution to a self- sustaining training entity. To this effect the
College has undergone a radical internal restructuring intended to
improve the delivery of training and services. As part of this strategy,
the College has also implemented vigorous staff development plan
targeting all levels of its staff. Since its establishment in 1975, TVTC
has made significant contribution in the area of Human Resources and
Management development in the region. Its role as a premier regional
training College has expanded substantially as a result of increased
client demands by institutions and organisations both within the country
and in the region.
OUR MISSION
To provide quality Technical and Vocational Teacher Training and
tailor—made programmes in a cost– effective manner in both the formal
and informal sectors to enhance individual and national development.
OUR VISION
To be a leading institution in the provision of quality and accessible
demand - driven training in Zambia.
