The number of females in short-cycle tertiary education with a vocational or professional focus involving work placements is forecasted to grow steadily over the next five years. Starting from a value of five in 2024, the forecast data suggests an increase to eight by 2028. The progression suggests a growth rate averaging around 12.5% annually over this period, though the number remains small, it reflects a positive trend.
Future trends to watch for include increased integration of digital skills into vocational curriculums and collaborations between educational institutions and industries to ensure alignment with workforce needs. These factors may further boost female participation in vocational education programs.
