DTVE records highest enrolment

For the first time, the Division of Technical and Vocational Education (DTVE) of the St Vincent and the Grenadines Community College (SVGC), has recorded its highest enrolment, surpassing that on the main campus at Glen. The main campus houses the Division of Arts, Sciences and General Studies (DAGS).

Some 600 new students have registered at the DTVE, which offers a range of technical courses.

Speaking at the distribution of Laptops to over 600 students on Friday, Lecturer at the DTVE, Dr. LaFerne Browne, said the increase in enrolment is a significant milestone that shows the impact of TVET (Technical Vocational Education and Training). She further commended the staff at the DTVE for their unwavering dedication to the students.

“This is not just a number, it is a powerful testament to the growing recognition in our country to the value of TVET, this milestone would not be possible without the hard work and dedication of our lecturers,” Dr. Browne said.

She extended gratitude to the government for their continued investment in TVET, and said the laptop computers will empower students to thrive in a technology- based environment. (API)
