MCC’s $295.7 million Namibia Compact (2009-2014) funded the $145 million Education Project, which included the $3.4 million National Training Fund (NTF) Sub-Activity. The program aimed to address the skills gap in Namibia’s labor force by establishing a sustainable source of funding for high-priority vocational education and skills training, thereby better matching workers to the needs of the economy and increasing employment, earnings, and income.
