Earlier, Hon. Museveni praised the TVET Act 2025 as a “key instrument for providing strategic direction and guidance” in modernising technical and vocational education.

She said TVET is vital for equipping Ugandans with the practical skills necessary to meet the demands of a rapidly changing job market because it enhances employability, drives productivity, and ultimately contributes to increased economic growth.
