ABSTRACT
Tanzania like many other developing countries is facing unemployment problem. The
government established vocational training institutions including FDCs in order to provide
technical skills for self-reliance and self-employment. The purpose of this study was to
explore the views on the effectiveness of FDCs in promoting self-reliance and selfemployment
among the FDC alumni. It used a descriptive survey research design to
examine a total of eighty (80) respondents. Data were collected using observation,
interviews and documentary reviews. The findings disclosed that most of the community
members had negative perception on the effectiveness of FDCs in promoting self-reliance
and self-employment to FDCs alumni.
This study proposes that FDC management and tutors need to conduct a tracer study to
locate their graduants. This would help to understand what they are doing and how
effective they are doing. The tracer study would also help in developing curricular that
could be more appropriate in the job market.
