Internet based learning or e-learning in TVET has become current trend and requirement of future needs of industry due to disruption of industrial revolution 4.0. Specifically, e-learning is the term broadly used to describe “instructional content or learning experience delivered or enabled by electronic technologies”. E-learning provides a flexible system of information dissemination which is not confined to only regular day time activities but can also take place in a variety of locations including homes, schools, libraries internet cafes and open fields. With e-learning, the TVET instructors will be able to reach learners in different set-ups using the available diverse ICT resource to meet the learners’ needs.

In this report, current TVET trends highlighted and stated that the TVET sector should have 4E (E-Content, E-Learning, Education Technology and Entrepreneurship).
The report also highlighted the gaps in TVET during the current situation. The one of the gaps is to provide continuous training to TVET teachers to facilitate the development and delivery of their online session. It is also emphasized that TVET has to empower teachers to develop their own e-Learning programs.
