         Staffing Population

            The  number of  teaching staff  at the  various VTE institutions under  the DTE for the year 1999 is shown  in  Table 3. The  total number  of  teaching staff  in all  DTE institutions (excluding the Continuing Education Section)  is 490, of whom 142 (29%) are female. Expatriate teachers constitute  46% of the total VTE teaching staff.

 

 

            Most  Bruneian  technical  instructors  in DTE institutions (except ITB and MJPAPRSB) have HND level qualifications or below, with a technical teacher training certificate. Expatriate staff, many of them with degrees, tend to have more industrial experience  than  local  staff. To get the right mixture of qualifications and experience in a teaching situation, a teaching strategy has been employed mainly by pairing local staff with expatriate staff so that they complement each other.
