The project supports the Government of Sri Lanka’s Skills Sector Development Program (SSDP) to build an efficient training system to meet the local and foreign labor demand by 2020. The project was supposed to be restructured in August 2018, but there were several delays in this process due to changes in leadership at the Ministry of National Policies, Economic Affairs, Resettlement & Rehabilitation, Northern Province Development, Vocational Training & Skills Development and Youth Affairs. Discussions have resumed with the Government of Sri Lanka on how to move forward with the restructuring of the project given the project is set to close at the end December 2019. 8/16/2019 Page 1 of 6 The World Bank Implementation Status & Results Report Skills Development Project (P132698) Risks Systematic Operations Risk-rating Tool Risk Category Rating at Approval Previous Rating Current Rating Political and Governance -- Substantial Substantial Macroeconomic -- Moderate Moderate Sector Strategies and Policies -- Moderate Moderate Technical Design of Project or Program -- Moderate Moderate Institutional Capacity for Implementation and Sustainability -- High High Fiduciary -- Moderate Moderate Environment and Social -- Moderate Moderate Stakeholders -- Moderate Moderate Other -- Moderate Moderate Overall -- Substantial Substantial Results PDO Indicators by Objectives / Outcomes Increase in access to training IN00682333 ►Number of trainees enrolled in public and private training institutions (Text, Custom) Baseline Actual (Previous) Actual (Current) End Target Total: 540,511 Male: Total: 148,131 T: 827,241 314,793 Female: Value Male: 81,047 -- M:452,609 225,718 (cumulative Female: 67,084 F:374,632 for three years) Date 31-Dec-2012 31-Dec-2016 31-Dec-2016 16-Dec-2019 IN00682335 ►Completion rate of trainees enrolled in public institutions (Text, Custom) Baseline Actual (Previous) Actual (Current) End Target All: 65 Male: 65 All: 77 All: 81 Female: 66 (2016 Value Male: 74 -- Male: 78 data) Female: 81 Female: 84 Date 31-Dec-2012 31-Dec-2016 31-Dec-2016 16-Dec-2019 8/16/2019 Page 2 of 6 The World Bank Implementation Status & Results Report Skills Development Project (P132698) Relevance of training IN00682334 ►Average earnings of TVET graduates relative to earnings of GCE-O level graduates (Text, Custom) Baseline Actual (Previous) Actual (Current) End Target Total: 1.08 Total: 1.12 Total: 1.03 Male: 0.99 Value Male: 1.00 -- Male: 1.04 Female: 1.08 Female: 1.14 Female: 1.16 Date 31-Dec-2012 31-Dec-2016 31-Dec-2016 16-Dec-2019 IN00682436 ►Employer satisfaction index (Percentage, Custom) Baseline Actual (Previous) Actual (Current) End Target Value 43.00 43.20 43.20 55.00 Date 30-Nov-2012 31-Dec-2017 31-Dec-2017 16-Dec-2019 Intermediate Results Indicators by Components Program Support to the Skills Sector Development Program IN00682437 ►Recurrent and capital releases spent in accordance with the imprest plan (Text, Custom) Baseline Actual (Previous) Actual (Current) End Target Recurrent 98% Recurrent 98%, Recurrent 98% Value -- Capital 75% Capital 86% Capital 85% Date 31-Dec-2013 31-Dec-2017 31-Dec-2017 16-Dec-2019 IN00682438 ►Timely availability of reliable data on institutional and sector performance (Text, Custom) Baseline Actual (Previous) Actual (Current) End Target Value 0.00 -- 4.00 at least 5 Date 31-Dec-2013 31-Dec-2017 31-Dec-2017 16-Dec-2019 IN00682439 ►Number of public institutions covered by performance based funding (Number, Custom) Baseline Actual (Previous) Actual (Current) End Target Value 0.00 57.00 57.00 80.00 Date 31-Dec-2013 30-Dec-2017 30-Dec-2017 16-Dec-2019 IN00682440 ►Employment Rate of TVET graduates (Text, Custom) Baseline Actual (Previous) Actual (Current) End Target 8/16/2019 Page 3 of 6 The World Bank Implementation Status & Results Report Skills Development Project (P132698) 77.4% based on Total: 86 national definition, Total: 88 Value Male: 88 -- 57.5% within 6 Male: 90 Female: 82 months, based on Female: 84 ADB tracer study Date 01-Nov-2012 31-Dec-2016 31-Dec-2016 16-Dec-2019 IN00682441 ►Timely submission (by June 30th) of entity audit reports of MYSAD and participating agencies (Text, Custom) Baseline Actual (Previous) Actual (Current) End Target All 9 entities submitted Only 2 out of 9 entities Value -- audited reports by May 45.00 had timely audit reports 16, 2017.
