I. THE VOCATIONAL TRAINING SYSTEM

General

1.01 The slowdown in growth plaguing the economy in recent years hasmade the chronic unemployment problem acute. Open unemployment is estimatedat about 22% of the 2 million labor force and disguised unemployment may betwice that. The situation is especially severe in urban areas where previouspro-urban policies had attracted new workers. Nearly 60% of workers now livein cities. Moreover, the Government's adjustment program will reduce thesubsidies and employment opportunities in the public sector and throw agreater share of the adjustment to harsh external realities upon theshoulders of the urban poor.

1.02 One element of the open and disguised unemployment problem is themismatch between the existing supply of skills of the labor force and thedemand. The demand for skilled workers in industry, agroindustry,construction and services (tourism in particular) is projected to grow morerapidly than the demand for unskilled labor. Given the preponderance ofsupply in the low skill segment of the market and the scarcity in the higherskill end, any resumption of economic growth is likely to be characterized bya widening wage gap between skilled and unskilled workers. Thus, not onlywill the short supply of skilled workers dampen growth, the structure of thelabor market will contribute to a worsening of income distribution whengrowth resumes. Vocational training can mitigate both phenomena.

Characteristics of the Vocational Training System and its InstitutionalFramework

1.03 The Ministry of Education provides, through a variety of means(secondary education, special courses and technical schools), education withsome vocational content to about 10,000 students. However, this training ismerely of a pre-vocational nature since most of the graduates either advanceto higher education or enter the job market in areas different from thosethey were trained for. Annex 2 indicates the structure of the formal andnon-formal system of education and training.

1.04 Vocational training proper is provided by a variety of private andpublic institutions (Ministry of Agriculture, Armed Forces, Social SecurityInstitute, INFOTEP). Most institutions provide pre-service training, i.e.,before entrance into the job market, to trainees who, in most cases, havedropped out of the formal education system (at elementary or secondary level)and in some cases, are adults without skills. Current enrollment in theseprograms amounts to about 5,000 students who graduate as technicians ormostly as certified skilled workers or craftsmen. Of this total, privateinstitutions absorb about 1,200 students and INFOTEP about 1,000. The ArmedForces with 11 centers, the Ministry of Agriculture with four centers and theprivate institutions provide for some regional coverage. The programs of theArmed Forces, Social Security Institute and INFOTEP are mainly orientedtoward metal mechanics, construction and electricity, while the agriculturalsector is served by the limited vocational training capacity of the Ministryof Agriculture.

-2-

1.05 In-service training, which has existed only since 1983, is providedby INFOTEP to about 4,000 trainees. These in-service training programs,although also covering the above mentioned areas of specialization, emphasizetraining in the services and agricultural sectors. These are provided byINFOTEP's own instructors or by other training institutions supported,technically and financially, by INFOTEP, and include training of supervisorsand production engineers in private enterprises.

The Vocational Training System's Performance and Issues

1.06 The country's present capacity to retrain employed workers andupgrade their skills represents less than one-fifth of the expected demand,with these shortfalls being very critical to the services, agricultural andmetal mechanics sectors. The same projections indicate that, by 1987, thedemand for new skilled manpower (i.e., entering the job market) will exceedthe current training capacity of the country by about 10X. Clearly there isa need to expand the vocational training capacity, particularly in the areaof in-service training. Annexes 3 and 4 show rough estimates of personnelrequirement for the 1983-87 period.

1.07 In addition, the pre-service training, as now conceived and run,has problems with the relevance and quality of its programs. Because of lackof analyses and forecast of changes in the labor market, the content andcomposition of the vocational training programs offered by the institutionsbear no relationship to market demands. This results in enterprisespreferring to hire unskilled manpower and providing ad hoc on-the-jobtraining, and in high unemployment among the graduates of the pre-servicetraining programs. This problem is compounded by lack of coordination amongthe institutions, resulting in duplications and gaps in programs and locationof facilities; by poorly qualified instructors who lack relevant industrialexperience; and by the poor quality of the equipment and materials used intraining.

Strategy for Improving the System

1.08 In order to structure the vocational training activities, increasetheir output and improve the adequacy of the training, the Government createdINFOTEP in 1980.1/ INFOTEP's mandate consists of (i) regulating,coordinating and monitoring all vocational training activities in thecountry; (ii) supporting the activities of existing training institutions;and (iii) complementing existing training activities where and when needed.This initiative received the support of the business community and tradeunions who are represented on INFOTEP's Board and finance, through payrolllevies, its operations. Besides enterprises and unions, the Ministries ofLabour, Education and Armed Forces are represented on the Board. The Boardis assisted, in technical matters, by a National Advisory Committee composedof representatives of enterprises and trade unions and of Government agenciesas the subject matter requires.

1/ The promulgation of Law 116 of January 1980 establishing INFOTEP was inpart the result of the Second Education Project (Loan 1142-DO) of 1975(para. 1.13).

-3-

1.09 Since its inceptlon INFOTEP has received technical assistance fromultilateral as well as bilateral sources. This has allowed INFOTEP toestablish itself as an Institution, to produce a preliminary medium-termdevelopment plan for vocational training, and start implementing vocationaltraining programs, mainly at the in-service level. However, it still doesnot have the technical capability and expertise to analyze the labor marketand forecast changes adequately; nor does it have the capacity to implement aplan resulting from such analyses. Also, it does not have the capabilitiesand facilities to complement the shortfall of existing training capacitiesadequately and to monitor the impact of the training rrograms.

1.10 Coordination and Decentralization of the Training Activities.INFOTEP intends to Improve its capacities to analyze and forecast labormarket requirements, and to monitor the impact of training provided. Thesewould enable INFOTEP to assist other institutions in planning andcoordinating their training activities both through direct advice andselective support of programs of institutions, and through coordinatingmechanisms such as INFOTEP's Board and aectoral technical advisorycomittees, which will comprise representatives of training Institutions,employers' organizations and trade unions. The guidelines for theestablishment of sectoral technical advisory committees at the regional levelwould be submitted to the Bank for comments by not later than June 30, 1986,and thereafter INFOTEP would promptly establish such committees. The use ofcommon trade standards, to be established by INFOTEP, would allow employersand training institutions to identify timely the need for additional trainingof employed workers and, at the same time, improve the targeting of programsby institutions. Creation of job placement services would enhance theintegration of graduates into the labor market and into jobs corresponding totheir skills.

1.11 Quality of Training. In order for INFOTEP to contribute to raisingthe quality of training, It plans to build up a capability to train its owninstructors, and those from other institutions and private enterprises,whether new or experlenced. Occupational analyses of all important trades byINPOTEP should provide a basis for all training institutions to adjust andupgrade course contents. Supervision of all training activities, based onpre-established norms and regulations, would become a continuous function ofINFOTEP and will require training of qualified supervisors. Finally, throughexpanded but selective support of other institutions' programs (material,equipment, instructional programs and technical assistance) INFOTEP will beable to influence the relevance and quality of the courses; an action plan tothat effect would be prepared by INFOTEP and submitted to the Bank forcomment by March 31, 1986, and promptly thereafter implemented.

1.12 Adequacy of Training. INFOTEP aims at contrlbuting to theexpansion of the training capacity, mainly in the area of in-service trainingwhere the shortfall of the existing capacity is the greatest. It will expandits own training capacity, as well as encouraging other training institutionsto expand in-service courses with adequate support of INFOTEP, and willassist private enterprises in setting up and running internal courses. Inaddition, the creation of a mobile training program by INFOTEP will not onlyincrease the training capacity but also increase flexibility in meeting thetraining needs of a wider range of geographic locations.

Bank Participation in the Education Sector

1 13 The Bank Groug has financed two education projects in the DominicanRepublic: a Pirst Education Project, supported by an IDA credlt of US$4million, was signed In February 1971 (Credit 235-DO); a Second EducationProject, supported by a loan of US$8 million, was signed in July 1975 (Loan1142-DO). Another Education Project, focusing on rural prlmary education hasbeen appraised, but was dropped by the Government from its Investment programas part of its financial adjustment easures.

1 14 The first project aimed at preparing and Implementing a reform ofthe education system by improving the quallty and content of secondaryeducation and tralning of prlary teachers, and by preparing a comprehensivelong-term plan for educational development. At completion2/ (April 1977),the project had provided a modern, well-equipped and geogra-phically balancedphysical setting for secondary schools and primary teachers' trainingcolleges. The reform of secondary schools suffered from implementationdelays, and thus, had only a partial Impact. The educatlonal planning wasnot finalized and the reform of secondary education (structure andcurriculum) was only partly completed and lplemented, indicating the needfor detailed pre-established job descriptlons and timetables allowingeffectlve supervision and evaluation of consultants' work In future projects.

1.15 The second project was designed to address the most Importantissues of rural basic education and vocational training, includingagriculture. The project aimed at the rationalization of the physicaldistribution of rural primary education and provided, to that effect, forconstruction or expansion and equipment of rural community learning centers(RCLC), as well as of agricultural and other voeational training centers, andincluded a technical assistance component for upgradlg program for teachersin the RCLCs. At completion 3/ (December 1983) the rationalization of therural primary education had been achleved by the creation of the RCLCs,complemented by the primary teachers' upgradlg programs; four agrlculturaland three other vocational training centers were established; and, also,INFOTEP was created, which prepared a prelimlnary medlum-tetm developmentplan, a first step toward a sustained improvement of the vocational trainingsystem.

II. THE PROJECT

Background

2.01 The Government of the Dominican Republic has requested the Bank'sassiseance in financing a five-year project aimed at improving the country'svocational training system, through increasing INFOTEP's capacity tocoordinate, regulate, monitor and decentralize vocational trainingactivities, and to improve the quality of and expand the vocational trainingsystem.

2.02 The proposed project would help the Government's developmentefforts oriented to more intensive use of the country's iatural resources (inagriculture, tourism and resource-based manufacturing). It would contribute

to increasing labor productivity and reducing unemployment. Anotherimportant feature of the government pollcy that this project would support isproducing Incentives for ruglonal development in order to slow workermigration to the major cities and promote a more equitable distribution ofdevelopment benefits.

2.03 The Bank's support of the proposed project is justifled because:(i) it would contribute to an overall improvement and more rationalutilization of the Dominican Republic's vocational training system; (li) itwould aid the Government's efforts to improve worker productivity andregional distribution of employment; (ili) it would contribute to enhancingexports and to attracting foreign Investment; (lv) it is feasible in terms offinancial and admlnistrative capacities of the borrower and the implementingagency; and (v) it would complement the Bank's previous involvement ininstitution building In the area of education and vocatlonal training.

2.04 A subsector study4/ mission visited the Dominican Republic InFebruary 1984, followed by preparatlon/pre-appraisal miselon In June 1984.The project was appraised durlng October 1984. Negotiations were held InWashington, D.C. on April 15 and 16, 1985. The Borrower and the Beneficiarywere represented by a delegation led by Dr. Pedro Franco Badia, Secretary ofLabour.

Project Objectives

2.05 As noted above, the project has two major objectives: (a) toenable INFOTEP to coordinate, regulate and monitor developments ln thevocational training system; and (b) to expand INFOTEP's capacity to provide,directly and indirectly, appropriate training In response to anticipatedskilled worker requirements.

Project Components

2.06 With regard to achieving the first objective, the proposed projectwould provide technical assistance (47 staffsonths of consultants servicesand eight staffmonths of fellowships) to INFOTEP to (i) enhance INFOTEPplanning services and management; (il) develop a training standard andcertlfication system, (iii) improve course content, and (iv) organize thetechnical supervision of all vocational training courses. Concerning thesecond objective, the proposed project would (i) expand the capacity toupgrade and train about 990 instructors through the organizatlon of about 57courses; (ii) establish a trainee followup and placement system; (iii)increase the pre-service training for about 850 additional unskilled workers;(iv) increase the in-service training to about 5,500 additional skilledvorkers and supervisors; (v) establish a pilot production tralinng center toprovide training for about 900 low income workers engaged In the informalsector of the economy; and (vi) enhance INFOTEP's training advisory servicesto assist about 560 enterprises in the training of about 1,800 supervisorsand managers. Therefore, the project would provide for construction orexpansion and equipment of three vocational training centers, forcomplementary training equipment for other collaborative tralningInstitutions, for the establishment of a mobile training program through theacquisition of 14 mobile sets of training equipment and about eig..t lightvehicles, and for technical assistance (59 staffmonths of consultantsservices and 156 staffmonths of fellowships). Annex 5 shows the correlationbetween the main

function of the vocational training system and project objectives andcomponents. Annexes 6-15 provide further details on the description of theproject components.

Objective 1: Strengthen INFOTEP's Role of Coordinating, Regulating andMonitoring the Vocational Training System.

2.07 Planning of Vocational Training System. The proposed project wouldinclude expert services and fellowships to provide assistance and training tomanagerial and technical personnel of INFOTEP, and to develop the appropriatemechanisms for planning and oricnting the vocational training activities ofthe system components. To these ends, 55 staffmonths of technicalassistance, of which 24 staffmonths will be financed by UNDP, have beenincluded in the project. (See Annexes 7 and 8.)

2.08 Training Standard and Certification Services. With support ofconsultant services (three staffmonths) and a fe-llowship financed by theproject, INFOTEP would develop a trade testing system based on trainingstandards for recognized, skilled occupations. This would allow themonitoring of training quality and relevance by targeting courses to providetraining in required skills; it would also motivate workers to attend theprescribed courses in order to obtain a certification of the level of skillsacquired. (See Annex 9).

2.09 Occupational Analyses and Course Content. To increase therelevance of training to labor market requirements and to standardizetraining programs, the project would include: occupational studies in 35occupations, preparation of 320 training modules, and experimentation withmodern training methods. Occupational analysis would be the basis for thepreparation of syllabi for different training modules, allowing workers toattend successive courses according to their specific training needs. Tothese ends the project includes consultant services (three staffmonths) and afellowship. (See Annex 10).

2.10 Supervision of Training Courses. Supervision of all coursesprovided by the different institutions would be organized as a permanentINFOTEP function, and executed by qualified personnel to ensure that programsare implemented following pre-established standards and methodologies. Theavailability and quality of equipment, tools, training facilities andtraining materials would be assessed, as well as trainers' skills andperformance. The project includes consultant services and a fellowship tothis end.

Objective 2: Expand Coverage and Improve the Quality of the VocationalTraining System.

2.11 Instructor Training Program. The project would finance 57 trainingcourses for instructors of INFOTEP and collaborating institutions. INFOTEPspecialists, assisted by experts financed by the project, would train about400 new full-time and part-time instructors and about 590 experiencedinstructors. (See Annex 11).

2.12 Trainee Follow-up and Placement. Selective follow-up of graduateswould be organized to obtain feedback on the impact of the training onworkers' employment, income and performance. (See Annex 12). Placementservices and training agency-employer committees would facilitate the

7-

employment of new graduates, and help detect changes in needs and spotprogram deficiencies. To that effect the project would provide consultantservices and fellowships. Specific follow-up studies, financed by theproject, of the graduates of the proposed pilot production center for theinformal sector occupation will be carried out to provide a basis fordeciding about future expansion; such studies would be prepared by INFOTEP inconsultation with the Bank and the results would be presented to the Bank forcomment and discussions by December 31, 1987, and promptly thereafterimplemented.

2.13 Expansion of Training Opportunities. The proposed project, whenfully operational in 1990, would axpand the country's yearly trainingcapacity to supply pre-service training for about 850 additional trainees,and in-service training for about 7,300 additional active workers andsupervisors representing about 25Z of the target group. Of this total, 5,000trainees would be reached through the mobile training program, 1,800 throughtraining services and 500 through training centers. (See Annexes 13-14). Inaddition, a pilot production training center would be established in a suburbof Santo Domingo offering training opportunities to about 900 low-incomeworkers engaged in informal sector trades, which would allow them to earnsome income from the sale of items produced during training. Pre-servicetraining would mainly be expanded in agriculture and metal-mechanics.In-service training would be expanded about equally in industry, agricultureand service sectors, and to a lesser extent in the construction sector. Inaddition, the in-service training capacity would be further increasedsubstantially by private firms using the trainers/supervisors trained byINFOTEP, and by shifts, promoted by INFOTEP, in other institutions' programstowards in-service training. Furthermore, expansion of training capacitieswould take place through creation or expansion of vocational training centersand mobile training programs.

2.14 The project would provide financing of construction, furniture andequipment for INFOTEP's training center in Santo Domingo, and completion ofthe Santiago center, owned by the Ministry of Education, but to be used inpart by INFOTEP under a formal agreement between the two parties. Theproject would also provide equipment and furniture for the pilotproduction-training center, and finance the replacement of obsolete equipmentand provide additional equipment for one small existing training center inSanto Domingo (Herrera), and other selected training institutions. (SeeAnnex 14).

2.15 The proposed project would also enable INFOTEP to operate trainingprograms in small towns and rural communities where fixed centers would notbe economically viable. Financing would be provided for fourteen mobile setsof equipment to provide for or complement existing local physical facilitiesof the comnunities or collaborating training institutions. To that effectINFOTEP will enter into agreements with enterprises or public agencies (suchas the Ministry of Housing, Agriculture or Education) who will share theresponsibility of the courses with INFOTEP and organize the recruitment ofparticipants. The mobile sets would be spe=ialized in industrial sewing,maintenance and metal mechanics, house construction, agricultural mechanics,and food production and preservation. (See Annex 15). This approach, whichhas proven to be successful in other countries of the region under Bankfinanced projects, is characterized by its low cost, high return andflexibility.

2.16 INFOTEP's Advisory Services for Enterprises Requiring SystematicOn-the-Job Training Programs. INFOTEP would enhance its capacity to assistenterprises in diagnosing training needs and in implementing on-the-jobtraining programs. Courses would be offered to improve skills inorganization, planning, administration, industrial relations, accidentprevention, etc. Supervisors and technicians would be trained as trainers inspecific subjects, where upgrading of skills of workers is needed. By 1988about 560 enterprises would benefit from such assistance, permitting about1,800 supervisors and managers to be trained per year. To that effect, theproject would provide (i) technical assistance for developing trainingprograms in small and medium enterprises; (ii) fellowships for INFOTEPtechnical staff; (iii) audiovisual aids and learning materials; and (iv)printing equipment to produce the instructional materials for the programs.

Project Costs and Financing

2.17 Costs. The total cost of the project (net of taxes) is estimatedat DR$25.1 million or about US$8.4 million equivalent, of which US$5.5million equivalent is foreign exchange (66%). Cost estimates for civil worksare based on tenders received. Equipment and furniture costs are based oninventories of requirements. Costs of technical assistance are assessed onthe basis of terms of reference and a program of consultant deployment.Physical contingencies amount to 10Z of total base cost. Price contingenciesfor local and foreign costs combined amounting to 12% of total base costincluding physical contingencies, are based on estimated inflation rates forlocal costs of 26.6% in 1985, 13 in 1986, 1OZ in 1987, 8X in 1988 and 7% ineach 1989 and 1990, and for foreign costs of 5Z in 1985, 7.52 in 1986, 8% foreach of the years 1987 through 1990. The estimated total cost and local andforeign exchange components by categories for the main project items aresummarized in Annexes 16 and 17. A comparison of unit costs is shown inAnnex 18.

2.18 Financing. The proposed Bank loan of US$5.8 million would finance69% of the total project cost or 94Z of foreign exchange cost and 20% oflocal costs. This level of financing is recommended on the followinggrounds: the reserves acciumalated by INFOTEP to finance in part the proposedproject have lost 55% of their purchasing power since appraisal as aconsequence of the change in exchange rate system and concomittant inflation;because of its ongoing adjustment program, the Government cannot provide thefunds to fill the financing gap. INFOTEP would contribute, mainly fromaccumulated revenues, US$2.3 million equivalent, representing 28% of thetotal project cost; the annual contribution during project implementationwill be reflected in INFOTEP's budget. Under separate arrangements. Line UNDPand the Government of Spain would finance technical assistance for abou.US$0.3 million, which represents some 3X of the total project cost and 6% offoreign exchange costs. A summary of project financing by category andorigin of resources is shown in Annex 19. The Government would pass on theproceeds of the loan as a grant to INFOTEP by a financing agreement,acceptable to the Bank. Execution of the financing agreement would be acondition of effectiveness.

Project Implementation

2.19 Implementation of the project will be the responsibility ofINFOTEP. A project director has been appointed from the staff of INFOTEP,while the Director General of INFOTEP will have overall projectresponsibility. The appointed project director has qualifications inaccordance with terms of reference satisfactcry to the Bank. INFOTEP wouldmaintain a project director with qualifications satisfactory to the Bankduring project implementation. The project director would be assisted byINFOTEP's planning, technical and administrative directorates and theconstruction department. The project is expected to be implemented in fiveyears, and to be completed by June 30, 1990. Annex 20 shows theimplementation schedule and accumulated completion rates.

2.20 Executing Aency. INFOTEP is a semi-autonomous organization,established by law in 19 0 as the main vocational training entity in thecountry. The headquarters are located in Santo Domingo and it has facilitieswith regional responsibilities in Santo Domingo, Herrera, Santiago and Azua.It is administered by a Tripartite Board, chaired by the Secretary of Labor,and composed of representatives of the Government, employers organizationsand trade unions. The Board is mainly responsible for policymaking, resourceallocation, and review and monitoring of key issues concerning budgeting,staffing, long-term planning and organizational setting. A GeneralDirectorate executes policy, supervises training programs and coordinatesoperations. The institution is organized into five operational units:Finance; Collection; Administration and Personnel; Methods and Operations;and Planning and Studies. The Institute is financed through a payroll levyon public and private enterprises and their employees (contributions of 1%and 0.5X, respectively), representing US$2.1 million equivalent in 1985 andexpected to increase in constant 1985 terms to US$2.5 million equivalent by1989. A specific action plan to increase INFOTEP's income by 2CM in realterms by December 31, 1989, by improving the efficiency of collecting thepayroll levy would be prepared by the Government and submitted to the Bankfor comment by December 31, 1986, and promptly thereafter implemented. From1980 to 1985, INFOTEP's income exceeded operating expenditures, resulting inaccumulated reserves which will be used to finance part of the project. Inearly 1985, INFOTEP's total staff numbered 284 persons and is expected toincrease to 324 by 1989, when the project would be fully operational.INFOTEP's recurrent budget is forecast to increase in constant terms fromUS$1.83 million equivalent in 1985 to US$2.47 million equivalent by 1990,when fully operational. In the intermediary years INFOTEP is expected togenerate surpluses on its income which will complement the revenuesaccumulated through 1985, to finance the project. Annex 21 shows past andprojected INFOTEP finances.

2.21 Procurement. Contracting of civil works is being carried out on thebasis of international competitive bidding (ICB) procedures which are inaccordance with Bank guidelines. Tenders for the first phase of the civilworks, including construction of workshops, sanitary facilities, guard houseand store rooms of the Santo Domingo Regional Center, were received in

- 10 -

December 1984. The same procedure is being followed in the second phase ofthe construction program, which includes classrooms and offices for the SantoDomingo Regional Center, and in the completion of the Santiago Center ownedb; the Ministry of Education. To the extent possible, contracts forequipment, furniture and other materials would be grouped to form attractivepackages and would be awarded on the basis of ICB in accordance with Bankguidelines, when exceeding US$50,000. Contracts below US$50,000 would beawarded on the basis of competitive bidding advertised locally in accordancewith government procurement practices acceptable to the Bank; such purchaseswould, in aggregate, not exceed US$350,000. In addition, miscellaneous itemsthat cannot be grouped in packages exceeding US$20,000 would be procuredthrough local purchasing on the basis of three price quotations; such localpurchasing would not in aggregate exceed US$300,000. Prior -nk review wouldbe required for contracts exceeding US$100,000. Other contracts would besubject to random review by the Bank after contract award. Contracts fortechnical assistance would be made in accordance with the Bank's guidelines.In the case of ICB, domestic manufacturers would be allowed a preferentialmargin in bid evaluation equal to the prevailing tariff or 15% of the CIF bidprice, whichever is lower. Annex 22 provides the details of procurementmodalities.

2.22 Disbursement. Because of the advanced stage of preparation andimplementation of parts of the project (civil works, equipment procurementand technical assistance), a disbursement profile, which is substantiallydifferent from that of the average education project in the region, has beenadopted which projects fast disbursements of the loan amount. The closingdate would be December 31, 1990. The proposed loan is expected to bedisbursed over a period of about five years to cover: (a) 30% of totalexpenditures for the second phase of the building program which includes partof the Santo Domingo center (classrooms and regional office) and thecompletion of the Santiago Center; (b) 100% of foreign expenditures, and 80Zof local expenditures (excluding taxes) for furniture, equipment andvehicles, including inctallation costs where applicable; and (c) 100% offoreign expenditures for consultant services and fellowships. Disbursementsagainst civil works, fellowships and contracts for furniture and equipmentwith a value of up to US$20,000 each, would be made on the basis ofstatements of expenditure. Related documents would be retained by INFOTEPand would be made available for Bank review. All other expenditures would befully documented. A Special Account, in U.S. dollars, would be financed outof the proceeds of the loan, through an initial deposit and subsequentreplenishment. The initial deposit would amount to US$0.5 millionequivalent. Annex 23 shows the estimated schedule of disbursement bycalendar and Bank fiscal years, and Annex 24 shows the categories, amountsand percentages to be financed by the Loan.

Accounting and Auditing Procedures

2.23 INFOTEP would maintain separate accounts for the project inaccordance with acceptable accounting practices. A summary of projectaccounts, reflecting cumulative expenditures incurred by the end of eachsemester, would accompany progress reports sent to the Bank for information.All INFOTEP accounts, financial statements and statements of expendituresrelevant to the project would be audited annually by independent auditorswith qualifications acceptable to the Bank. The annual auditor's report and

- 11 -

the certified copies of all relevant financial statements would be remittedto the Bink not later than 120 days after closing of each fiscal year.INFOTEP's current accounting practices and its auditing arrangements areacceptable to the Bank. Similarly, the Government would be required to havethe Special Account audited annually by independent auditors withqualifications acceptable to the lank. Annex 25 shows the INFOTEPindependent audit situation.

2.24 Monitoring and Evaluation. The project director would beresponsible for prepariag periodic progress reports which would provideinformation on the quantitative and qualitative aspects of the project.Forms would be developed to suit the lank's reporting requirements, and therelevant information would be sent quarterly to the Bank. Annex 26 providesa list of main Indicators for project monitoring and evaluation.

2.25 The Directorate of Planning and Evaluation would participate in theevaluation of project implementation; on-the-job performance of a selectednumber of graduates from INFOTEP's and collaborating institutions' trainingprogram would also be evaluated. Knowledge and insights gained from theevaluation process will be fed back into the system for the periodicupgrading of the curricula and course syllabi. A project completion reportwould be prepared by the government within six months of project completion.

III. PROJECT BENEFITS AND RISKS

Benefits

3.01 Building on an initiative started under a previous Bank financedoperation, the project would further the development of the vocationaltraining system through institutional development of INFOTEP, increases incoverage and quality of the vocational trainDig provided, therebycontributing to the government's development efforts.

3.02 Institutional Development. The project would equip INFOTEP withthe capacity to carry out integrated planning for the vocational trainingsystem, to assist enterprises and institutions to upgrade training programs,and to optimize the use of the country's physical and human trainingresources.

3.03 Improvement in Coverage. he project would double the country'scapacity to supply in-service training in Santo Domingo and in the regions.Coverage would be further increased by: (i) the maultiplier effect of firminstructors/supervisors trained by INFOTEP; and (ii) changes in theorientation of courses offered by collaborating institutions. Sectoralcoverage would also be enlarged.

3.04 Ixprv _ nt in Qulity. Quality of training would improve becauseof the avallability of: i) instructors with upgraded qualifications; (ii)program content reflecting labor market requirements; (iii) adequate trainingequipment, tools and materials; (iv) periodic technical and pedagogicalsupervision of the courses; and (v) periodic follow-up of graduates'on-the-job performance.

Risks

3. 05 No significant risks are associated with the technicalimplementation of the project. Achieving the project's objectives, aimed atimproving the whole vocaticnal training system, is, however, subject to twopotential risks. The first is concerned with INFOTEP's ability to fulfillits primary role of coordinating and monitoring all training activities inthe country; the second refers to the readiness of INFOTEP to provideadequate financial resources to support the training activities ofcollaborating institutions.

3.06 INFOTEP's Ability to Coordinate and Monitor the System. As a newlyorganized institution, there is always the risk that INFOTEP may prove to beineffective in its role of coordinating the activities of the entire system,and may become instead another palliative institution competing with publicand private institutions already providing training. This r'sk would bereduced if, as is recommended in the proposed project, INFOTEP were given themeans to offer good quality services, and thereby earn prestige as well asthe confidence of its clients. A technical assistance program, which formsan integral part of the project and built upon technical assistancepreviously provided by INFOTEP, aims to assist INFOTEP's technical staff incoping with this task.

3.07 INFOTEP's Allocation of Resources to Support CollaboratingInstitutions. INFOTEP has been expanding its training activities rapidly, tosome extent at the expense of collaborative efforts with other trainingagencies, thus limiting its influence on improving the quality and providingdirection for the rest of the system. The required resources would beobtained by earmarking an increasing portion of INFOTEP's resources for thesepurposes by mitigating INFOTEP's tendency to increase its administrativeexpenditures (including salaries). Therefore, assurances have been obtainedfrom INFOTEP that it would maintain separate entries in its annual operatingbudget for contribution to other training agencies through several means,such as training materials and equipment, instructional program and technicalassistance. A plan identifying measures to be taken to increase the share ofthese activities in INFOTEP's annual budget to 30% by December 31, 1989,would be submitted to the Bank for comment by June 30, 1986, and implementedpromptly thereafter.

IV. AGREEMENTS REACHED AND RECOMMENDATIONS

4.01 During negotiations, the Government has provided assurances thatINFOTEP shall:

(a) submit to the Bank for comment not later than June 30, 1986,guidelines for the establishment of sectoral technical advisorycommittees at regional level and promptly thereafter establish suchcommittees (para. 1.10);

(b) submit to the Bank for comment by March 31, 1986, an action planfor upgrading the quality and extending the use of thecollaborating institutions and promptly thereafter implement suchaction plan (para. 1.11);

- 13 -

(c) present to the Bank for comments by December 31, 1987, the resultof the studies concerning training in the informal sector includedin the project and promptly thereafter implement suchrecommendations (para. 2.12);

(d) submit to the Bank for comments by December 31, 1986, an actionplan to increase INFOTEP's income by about 20Z between 1985 and1989 by improving the efficiency in collecting the payroll levy andpromptly thereafter implementing such plan of action (para. 2.20);

(e) forward to the Bank 120 days after end of the fiscal year theannual auditor's report and the certified financial statements ofINFOTEP (para. 2.23); and

(f) maintain separate entries in its annual operating budget forcontributions to other vocational training agencies. A plan toidentify measures to be taken by INFOTEP to increase its annualoperating budget for these activities to 30Z by December 31, 1989,would be submitted to the Bank for comments by June 30, 1986. Thiswould mainly be achieved by reducing INFOTEP's administrativeexpenses including salaries (para. 3.07).

4.02 A draft financial agreement between the Ministry of Finance andINFOTEP (para. 2.18), and the signed agreement between the Secretariat of,ducation and INFOTEP for the permanent use by INFOTEP of a part of theSantiago Center facilities were reviewed by the Bank to its satisfactionduring negotiations (para. 2.14).

4.03 A condition of Loan Effectiveness would be that the Government andINFOTEP sign a financing agreement, acceptable to the Bank, by which the loanproceeds are made available as a grant by the Borrower to the Beneficiary(para. 2.18).

4.04 Subject to the above conditions the proposed project constitutes asuitable basis for a Bank loan to the Government of the Dominican Republic ofUS$5.8 million equivalent, with a term of 17 years including a grace periodof four years.

3.16 Promoting active participation by employers and workers in thevocational training process; and

3.17 Making full use of skills acquired by workers in the course oftheir labor for training and promotion.

4. Methodology

The methodology to be adopted would be implemented in seven stages:

4.1 Studies on the feasibility of resources for certification policies.

4.2 Establishment of minimum trade requirements.

4.3 Preparation of methods to assess whether standards are being met.

4.4 Application of those assessment methods.

4.5 Establishment of certification regulations.

4.6 Coordination of vocational training and apprenticeshipcertification.

4.7 Personnel training for the preparation, application, evaluation andanalysis of assessment instruments.

5. Application

5.1 Application of the assessment methodology requires full support byan interdisciplinary team made up of occupational analysts andassessors, and by technicians of the trade in question.

5.2 Assessment procedures must be devised according to the minimumrequirements established in order to gauge the practical abilitiesand applied technological knowledge required for satisfactoryperformance in a trade.

5.3 Assessment procedures should be devised and applied according tothe economic, social, cultural and labor characteristics of thecountry's economically active population.

5.4 Achievement of these goals make it essential for employers andworkers to be informed about the aims, conditions and criteria,procedures and area covered by the assessment process.

OUTLINE FOR INPLENEUTAT?ION OF OCCUPATIONAL ANALYSES

*I. Obective

To collect and to process information concerning occupational content ofthe labor market. This information will be used to define training programcontent In relation to each job's technical and practical characteristics.and tbus determine the skills required to perform each occupationsatisfactorily.

II. Planning and Organization of the Occupational Studies

- Identify main occupations.- List firm requiring akilled workers and supervisors.- Study legal regulations of affecting some occupations.- Analyze formal system supply.- Determine priority economic activities.- Ensure regional dlstribution of economic actlvities and occupations.- Design forim and guidelines to obtain the required information.- Define criteria to a select group of firms were the study will

be done.- Estimate the cost of the study.- Prepare an lmplenentation schedule.- Establish follow-up study criteria.- Organize a pilot application.

III. Information to be Collected

- Activities performed by a sample of workers in select occupationalgroups.

- Technical and enviromental factors.- Skills, duties and responsibilities required for satisfactory job

performance.

IV. Output of the Occupational Studies

The information to be collected and processed would be used to preparetraining program, and trade standards and certification.

- Definition of occupational titles.- Job descriptions.- Relationship between similar occupations.- Technical requirements for each occupation.- Practical skills required for each occupation.- Occupational inventory.- Occupational chart.- Occupational profile.- Classification of occupation by sector and economic activity.

V. Application

INFOTEP would use the information and outputs mentioned above in thefollowing activities:

- Preparation of training program content and syllabi.- Evaluation of trainlng programs.- Selection of course participants.- Initiation of a follow-up and placement system.- Design of certification system.- Preparation of occupational tests.- Training of instructors.- Establishment of modular programs.- Design of skilled worker career and promotion charts.- Definition of qualitative training needs.

DOMINICAN REPUBLICVOCATTIOAL T MIN PROJECT

HISTORIC AND PROJECTED INFOTEP FINANCES

INFOTEP was created during the latter part of 1980 and endowedwith three principal sources of operating income: (a) a 1Z payroll levy,(b) a 0.5Z levy on the workers' share of firms' profits, and (c) directad hoc contributions from the Ministry of Labor (MOL). The most iaportant ofthese is the payroll levy, which has brought in 8(z to 9go of total operatingincome. It is estimated that firms and public entreprises subject to thepayroll levy pay about 5oz of the total potential yield of the levy. Thegreat majority of sizable private and public enterprises currently pay thelevy; the small firms typically evade payment. The administrative costsinvolved in enforcing payment by these small firms nearly offsets the gain toINFOTEP. Another characteristic of the collection pattern, both for thepayroll and the profit share levies, is that many firms fall recurrently inarrears, and they resume regular payments, together with payment of thearrears, only after persistent visits from INFOTEP's administrativedepartrient. Thus, the yield of levies in 1982-84 shows fluctuationunconnected to the evolution of wages. The levy on the workers' share ofprofits has also been significant, at about 5-10Z of the total. Contrary tothese two, MOL's contributions have been small and declined during the pastfour years. An unexpected source of income has been interest on theaccumuIlated Lquid funds of INFOTEP, created during 1981-83 when INFOTEP wasbeing organized, and therefore, its training activities were limited.

For 1989, it is projected that operating income from the levieswill increase by about 20Z in real terms in comparison to 1985. This is duein part to the expected increased effectiveness of INFOTEP in inducing morefirms to pay their obligations, and in part to the willingness to pay duesthat many small firms have in order to be included in INFOTEP's andcollaborating institutions' training programs. 0OL's contributions andinterest are projected to fall to an insignificant amount as the result ofthe proposed project. All of INFOTEP's accumulated surplus will be investedin the proposed civil works. Furthermore, it is unlikely that the State willbe willing to contribute to INFOTEP's operating income through budgetaryallocations, because the government is expected to service the proposed WorldBank loan.

On the expenditure side, the biggest item is personnel salaries,making up about 65Z of the total in 1984. INFOTEP salaries are significantlyabove the rest of the labor market in the Dominican Republic (probably 20-4(1on average). INFOTEP has tried to attract above-average personnel in thisway, but, more importantly, the large operating surpluses of 1981-83 allowedsalaries to rise. Therefore, an important source of future economies, asINFOTEP's financial situation becomes tighter from the combined effect of theexpanding training programs and the projected stagnation of the country's

- 39 -ANNEX 21

Page 2 of 2

economy, will lie in restraining the growth salaries. As a matter of fact,this process has already started. Although INFOTEP's personnel is projectedto rise by about 5-10% during 1985, allocation for salary payments in the1985 budget is only 10% higher than in 1984, implying stable nominal salariesduring a period when inflation will exceed 20%.

The next most significant category is General Expenditures(transport, publicity, maintenance and repairs, rent payment, Board ofDirectors' honoraria, etc.). As in the case of salaries, many of these itemsare higher than necessary because of INFOTEP's financial surplus.Anticipating large requirements for counterpart funds during 1985 andsubsequent years in the context of the proposed project, INFOTEP's Board ofDirectors is decreasing authorization for this category for 1985, it isprojected that INFOTEP will limit salary increases to the cost-of-livingindex, keeping salaries of its personnel at their 1985 real level. For theGeneral Expenditures category on the other hand, it is project that followinga drastic reduction between 1984 and 1985, it will grow rapidly until 1989because important components (transport, maintenance and repairs, etc.) are afunction of training activities and therefore will have to be adjusted to therate of increase of these activities.

The following table provides a sumary picture of INFOTEP'sfinances in 1982-85, and the projected income and expenditure flows in 1989.

INFOTEP's INDEPENDENT AUDIT SITUATION

1. The auditor's report on the financial statements of INFOTEP sincethe beginning of the operations has been prepared by Gomez Santos & Assoc.within four months of the end of the fiscal year in 1983/84. The reportshave been qualified based on the fact that INFOTEP recognizes and records theincome from contributing entreprises only at the time that such income hasbeen deposited at the National Treasury. This is an acceptable financialpolicy by a conservative Board of Managers. The independent auditors argue,however, that in accordance with Law No. 116 dated January 16, 1980, allenterprises are compelled to contribute to INFOTEP with 1Z of their totalpayroll and that a certain number of the enterprises are in the process ofcomplying with the law; and therefore, there are accounts receivable andincome in an amount neither quantified nor recorded. This situation willpersist as long as the law does not allow INFOTEP to demand monthly reportsfrom the enterprises on the respective payroll.

2. Gomez Santos & Assoc. is an acceptable national firm of publicaccountants representing Touche Ross, an international CPA firm withrepresentation offices in over 100 countries. Gomez Santos & Assoc. ranksfourth (with about 25 professionals) in the Dominican Republic next to PriceWaterhouse, Cooper & Lybrand and Pannel, Kerr, Fuster representatives (all ofwhich are totally national firms). The firm is currently auditing some otherBank projects (one partially) as well as several IDB projects (Ministry ofPublic Works, Rural Housing, Ministry of Education), the Venezuelan Fundproject (road construction), and the USAID project (road construction underthe Ministry of Public Works).

3. As agreed with the independent auditors and INFOTEP's management,who were briefed regarding Bank's audit requirements, starting with theoperation of Bank's loan two separate audit reports will be prepared: onecovering INFOTEP's financial statements as an economic unit and a separatereport regarding Bank's project. In both cases, the Bank's auditing andreporting requirements will be observed by the auditors.
