Press Release 16 April 2021 HKHS Gerontech Competition Encourages Young People to Put STEM Learning into Practice to Improve the Quality of Life for Seniors In the light of an ageing population, gerontechnology is pivotal to achieving ageing-in-place and independent living of the elderly. The Hong Kong Housing Society (HKHS) being a pioneer in elderly housing and related services has organised the inaugural HKHS Gerontech Competition in this academic year, thereby supporting STEM education while promoting gerontechnology and intergenerational harmony in the community. The Competition was successfully concluded with an award presentation ceremony today (April 16), and the winning designs are going to be showcased at the HKHS Exhibition Centre in May this year. More than 750 students from nearly 150 teams participated in the two categories of “Secondary School Student” and “Tertiary Student (Vocational Training Council Group)”, to compete for the Gold, Silver and Bronze Awards, and also the Best Creativity Award, Best Application Award and the Most Popular Award which was returned by public voting. HKHS Chairman Walter Chan said, “The Housing Society has endeavoured to integrate the objectives of ageing-in-place and intergenerational harmony in our business. Our first elderly housing projects were launched more than 20 years ago, and since then elderly housing has become one of our core business in face of the ageing population. The third Senior Citizen Residences Scheme project at Lee Kung Street is expected to complete in 2022, and we will also provide elderly housing in rental estate redevelopment and dedicated rehousing estate projects, in an effort to help the elderly people age in place.

Review of Development of Vocational Education in Hong Kong Research Office Legislative Council Secretariat
Information Note Review of development of vocational education in Hong Kong Research Office Legislative Council Secretariat IN15/14-15 1. Introduction 1.1 Ever since the establishment of the Junior Technical School on Caroline Hill in 1932, vocational education has a history of more than 80 years in Hong Kong. Yet it was not until the establishment of the Vocational Training Council ("VTC") in 1982 did Hong Kong have a statutory organisation dedicated to development of vocational education and training ("VET"). In 2013-2014, there were 46 500 students enrolled in full-time vocational education programmes offered by VTC, accounting for around one-tenth of overall full-time students at upper secondary to tertiary level in Hong Kong. On top of this, VTC also offered 190 200 on-the-job training places for working adults during the year. 1.2 The purpose of this information note is to highlight the development of vocational education in Hong Kong since the 1970s. Specifically, it also traces the evolution of major categories of vocational schools in the education system, including former prevocational schools, secondary technical schools and skills opportunity schools ("SOSs"), which are mostly defunct after the implementation of education reforms in the late 1990s. As the research focus is vocation education for students, this information note will not go into vocational training for existing workforce unless necessary.1 2. Development of vocational education in Hong Kong since 1970s 2.1 Hong Kong faced an acute shortage of skilled workers amidst its rapid industrialisation since the late 1950s. In response, the Government set up 1 At present, VTC, Construction Industry Council (CIC), Clothing Industry Training Authority (CITA) and the Employees Retraining Board (ERB) are the four statutory bodies involved in VET.
