MISSION
To test framework DMS (Demand/Mediator/Supply) Dynamics on some nations across the world.

"The DMS Dynamics," is a conceptual framework designed to dissect and understand the intricate interplay within TVET systems. At its core, the DMS Dynamics model explores how the labor market's demand for specific skills interacts with the educational supply, facilitated by a pivotal mediator—usually comprising government bodies, industry associations, and educational institutions. This model highlights the cyclical and responsive nature of TVET systems, emphasizing the importance of alignment among these three elements for workforce development and economic growth. By analyzing TVET through the lens of DMS Dynamics, we can identify the driving forces behind successful vocational education outcomes and the strategic roles of various stakeholders in shaping a skilled, adaptable workforce.

The DMS01 Evaluation Table is as follows:

The DMS01 Evaluation Table is a tool designed to assess the effectiveness of different nations in aligning their Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET) systems according to the Demand/Mediator/Supply (DMS) model. This evaluation focuses on three key components: the identification and clarity of market needs (Demand), the efficiency of intermediary actions by mediators in translating these needs into actionable insights for educational institutions (Mediator), and the responsiveness of TVET programs in meeting these market demands (Supply). The final column, Overall DMS01 Alignment, offers a summary evaluation of how cohesively and effectively a country's TVET system functions within the DMS framework, ensuring relevance and effectiveness in workforce development.
