Tracer Study of 2019 Graduates of Holeta Polytechnic College in the Catchment Area. International Journal of Secondary Education. Vol. 6, No. 4, 2021, pp. 99-111. doi: 10.11648/j.ijecs.20210604.12 Received : May 25, 2021; Accepted : July 8, 2021; Published : July 15, 2021 Abstract: A purpose-driven and effective TVET is basic to generate competent and essential high-level skills, values, and knowledge vital for the socio-economic development of a country. The study traced the HPC students who graduated in 2011 in terms of their job placement profile and the usefulness, relevance, and adequacy of the skills and competencies as well as work-related values to their job placement. A survey method using questionnaire was utilized to 229 respondents. Results revealed that most of the respondents didn’t landed on jobs which were related to their training program for about 1-6 months. The total number 2019 graduates employed in these organization were 45 out of which 42 graduates 50% (21) were employed on the related position where as 50% (21) were employed to the position which is irrelevant to their field of study. The remaining 6.7% did not respond. These employed graduates are from 7 different colleges and one TVET center. The occupation they have been specialized in are 9. Out of 51 graduates found in Holeta and Walmara district only 14 unemployed graduates filled the survey questionnaires 14.3% (2) continued their degree program while other are still searching for the job. The study revealed that lack of experience, existing bureaucracy, saturation of the occupation of the graduate’s main obstacles to get jobs. Finally, as one aspect in the sustainability it will be crucial to identify ways to further publish and disseminate the tracer study results, in order to make them a regular, visible steering tool for both TVET institutes at the local level as well as at the national level. Keywords: Tracer Study, Holeta, Graduates universities and institutions managing higher education in 1. Introduction their respective countries make informed and evidence based Holeta Polytechnic College is planning to establish a decisions about improvements and quality education and Center of Excellence in Agro-Processing (CEAP) through the services in higher education [2, 4]. East Africa (EA) East Africa Skills for Transformation and Regional universities and higher education institutions (HEIs) should Integration Project (EASTRIP) funded by the World Bank not be an exception. In addition, importance of graduate (WB). The overall objective of the proposed CEAP at Holeta tracer studies is to incorporate effective improvements into Polytechnic College is to deliver quality outcome-based institutional programs of HEIs by collecting and analyzing training and to supply competent, motivated and innovative information on graduate’s study experiences, professional middle and low-level workforce equipped with the necessary and personal careers. Such studies can be used to collect data technological skills that would ensure the implementation of on the employment situation of the most recent graduates in an agriculture-led industrial economy of Ethiopia. Towards order to obtain indicators for their professional performance the end of the 20th Century, European Universities embraced [5]. They can therefore, be used to contribute to causal the use of tracer studies for a plethora of reasons; especially explanations of the relevance and appropriateness of the to accredit their study programs; to explain the link between study conditions, services and programmes provided by HEIs study programs and the job market; to show uniqueness and and the quality of the graduate product [6-8]. positioning of individual universities; and also to enable Tracer study is an important tool to obtain valuable International Journal of Education, Culture and Society 2021; 6(4): 99-111 100 information regarding the graduates’ livelihood after they of HPC graduates and employment destinations. completed their training and join the labor market [3].

  • Small and Medium Forest Enterprises in Ethiopia
    The annual value of small and medium forest enterprises (SMFEs) in Ethiopia amounts to hundreds of millions of dollars – dominated in rough order of value by fuelwood, herbal remedies, wild coffee, honey and beeswax and timber furniture. The majority of these enterprises are informal and remain Small and medium forest largely unregulated and untaxed by any government authority. Nevertheless these enterprises appear to have significant social and economic benefits. The Government of Ethiopia has responded by providing support, particularly through enterprises in Ethiopia the framework of Micro and Small Enterprises. The recent establishment of the Oromia State Forest Enterprises Supervising Agency and new policy declarations about the community’s stated role in forest management are clear indications of the current interest in forest resources and the roles they play in rural livelihoods. Non-governmental organisations have also been experimenting with Participatory Forest Management and offered training to emerging enterprises, particularly those engaged in non-timber forest products. Yet few associations have yet been established to try and access the more lucrative markets beyond the local setting. SMFEs have great potential to reduce poverty in Ethiopia, but in their present unregulated state also represent a threat to the country’s declining forest resources. This report consolidates information about them and suggests a practical way forward for those wishing to support them. IIED Small and Medium Forest Enterprise Series No. 26 ISBN

Dairy has been identified as a priority area for the Ethiopian government, which aims to increase Ethiopian milk production at an average annual growth rate of 15.5% during the GTP II period (2015-2020), from 5,304 million litters to 9,418 million litters. This study was carried out to assess determinants of dairy product market participation of the rural households in the case of Adaberga district in West Shewa zone of Oromia national regional state, Ethiopia. The study took a random sample of 120 dairy producer households by using multi-stage sampling procedure and employing a probability proportional to sample size sampling technique. For the individual producer, the decision to participate or not to participate in dairy production was formulated as binary choice probit model to identify factors that determine dairy product market participation.

    Research Article Journal of Veterinary Science & Technology Volume 12:3, 2020 ISSN: 2157-7579 Open Access Prevalence of Bovine Cysticercosis at Holeta Municipality Abattoir and Taenia Saginata at Holeta Town and its Surroundings, Central Ethiopia Seifu Hailu* Ministry of Agriculture, Addis Ababa, Ethiopia Abstract A cross section study was conducted during November 2011 to March 2012 to determine the prevalence of Cysticercosis in animals, Taeniasis in human and estimate the worth of Taeniasis treatment in Holeta town. Active abattoir survey, questionnaire survey and inventories of pharmaceutical shops were performed. From the total of 400 inspected animals in Holeta municipality abattoir, 48 animals had varying number of C. bovis giving an overall prevalence 12% (48/400). Anatomical distribution of the cyst showed that highest proportions of C. bovis cyst were observed in tongue, followed by masseter, liver and shoulder heart muscles. Of the total of 190 C. bovis collected during the inspection, 89(46.84%) were found to be alive while other 101 (53.16%) were dead cysts. Of the total 70 interviewed respondents who participated in this study, 62.86% (44/70) had contract T. saginata Infection, of which, 85% cases reported using modern drug while the rest (15%) using traditional drug. The majority of the respondent had an experience of raw meat consumption as a result of traditional and cultural practice. Human Taeniasis prevalence showed significant difference (p<0.05) with age, occupational risks and habit of raw meat consumption. Accordingly individuals in the adult age groups, occupational high risk groups and habit of raw meat consumers had higher odds of acquiring Taeniasis than individuals in the younger age groups, occupational law risk groups and cooked meat consumers, respectively.
