The SWW L+EARN TVET campaigns were specifically targeted at young adults in their final year at technical vocational education and training (TVET) colleges who are about to enter the world of work. The campaigns employed a learning-by-doing strategy using industrial theatre, Facebook, SMSs, and WhatsApp.
SWW L+EARN TVET delivered financial education through facilitated workshops over a six-week period. During these workshops, facilitators taught participants about various financial concepts, good financial behaviour and soft skills related to improving one’s employability. Additionally, there was an experiential learning component whereby participants are grouped together to compile a drama production that incorporates what they have learned during the programme. These were then performed by the participants in front of their peers and lecturers at an awards event at the end of the programme. The workshops were also complemented by auxiliary delivery channels, including social media (Facebook and WhatsApp) and SMSes, that were used to reinforce the core messaging taught through the workshops.
