2.History 

Taipei City Vocational Development Institute was formerly the Taipei Vocational Training Center, which was established on July 1, 1983, with the aim of nurturing Taipei City’s human resources. After many reforms, the Center was transformed into the Vocational Development Institute on January 1, 2013. From career decisions to career development, we provide comprehensive competency nurturing programs for job seekers. These development areas include: competency nurturing, competency assessment, skills assessment and trainee guidance. In response to industry changes within metropolitan Taipei, the Institute especially caters to the career development of the insured party covered under the Employment Insurance Act who has been involuntarily terminated, as well as specific groups of the unemployed (middle and old age, disadvantaged and disabled), by actively assisting them in increasing their employment competitiveness.
