Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET) plays a crucial role in skills development across various sectors of Uganda's economy. The study employed both qualitative interviews with stakeholders and quantitative surveys among students and employers. Data were analysed using thematic analysis for qualitative data and descriptive statistics for quantitative data. Findings indicate a significant correlation (r = 0.72, p < .01) between TVET participation and improved employability skills among graduates. The mixed-methods approach revealed that while TVET is effective in developing technical skills, there are areas for improvement in curriculum relevance and industry integration. Policy recommendations include enhancing alignment with industry needs, improving teacher training, and increasing funding to support curriculum development.
