The NSS provides a comprehensive action plan for revamping of TVET in the country. Several actions have already been taken on the recommendations contained in the NSS, which includes development of National Vocational Qualification Framework (NVQF), national qualifications system for teachers, code of conduct, accreditation system, HRD policy for TVET, skill standards, and curricula in priority areas.

NAVTTC accords a high priority to address the issues being faced by neglected geographical areas, marginalized segments of society; and uplift TVET sector in country.
