Since 2002, Center for Vocational Training (CVT Myanmar) has been providing high quality vocational education, in the form of dual apprenticeship inspired from Switzerland and Germany in collaboration with local enterprises and business associations in Myanmar. Throughout the past years, the school was technically and financially sustained by Swiss Supporter Association of Switzerland. After twenty years of hard work, dedication, and commitment to Myanmar, CVT has become a model trademark of the national level vocational training institute in the landscape of education and employment.

CVT has played a pivotal role in empowering the nation’s young people, educating 1,502 diploma graduates (1 to 3 Years) Dual Apprenticeship Diplomas, 1,164 Short Vocational Training Certificates holders, and training 1068 Post-Grad Certificates, many of whom have gone on to become industry leaders in their fields.

Despite the challenges posed by the COVID-19 pandemic and the 2021 political unrest, we remain committed to continuing CVT’s legacy, upholding its visionary core values, and equipping the next generation with the skills needed to thrive in the labor market and drive the future of Myanmar.

In early 2023, CVT transitioned into a non-profit social enterprise, registered under the Directorate of Investment and Company Administration (Reg/136287206), and is now driven by a team of experienced local professionals.
