Commissioned by the German government, the GIZ programme for sustainable training and education supports both the higher education and technical and vocational training and education (TVET) sectors in Ethiopia.

The German programme for the higher education and TVET sector helps strengthen Ethiopian organisations and individuals working in the field of higher education and TVET so they can provide quality education. STEP started operating in 2015.

The programme works with various institutions on a national and regional level. These include the Ministry of Education, the Higher Education Quality and Relevance Agency, the Education Strategy Centre and the Federal TVET Agency and others.

It also provides direct support for selected universities, institutes of technology (IoTs) and TVET colleges.
