Therefore, the main purpose of this paper is to elaborate on the key role of ICT in education in general. More specifically, this paper aims to elaborate on the vital role of ICT in Teaching Vocational Education & Training (TVET) education. This is due to the fact that technical and vocational education is one of the main areas in education that ICT integration can enhance its productivity.
