New Category for Donations

A new award to promote donations to support IVETA has been established. The goal of the promotion is to encourage and recognize new donations by individuals or organizations to promote and support specific IVETA activities and the advancement and improvement of TVET. Normally donations would provide support for one year but could be for multiple years.

Donations levels recognized, and promoted would be:

  • Bronze: US$500 – $1,500
  • Silver: $1,501-2,500
  • Gold: $2,501 upwards

In-kind donations, as well as cash donations, would be recognized in the same manner as existing awards. All Award recipients receive a plaque/certificate and a complimentary year of IVETA membership.
