SEM welcomes appointment of new VTC Executive Director
The Secretary for Education and Manpower, Mr Joseph W P Wong, welcomed the appointment yesterday of Professor Lee Ngok as the next Executive Director of the Vocational Training Council (VTC).
As Executive Director, one of Professor Lee's major responsibilities will be to take forward to the implementation stage those recommendations which the Government will eventually adopt following its strategic review of the Vocational Training Council.
"All those within the Government who are involved in vocational education and training look forward to working with Professor Lee in the coming years", said Mr Wong.
Paying tribute to the retiring Executive Director, Mr Horace Knight, Mr Wong said that Mr Knight had played a key role in the development of vocational education and training in Hong Kong.
"The VTC has many strengths and has achieved a great deal over the years", said Mr Wong.
"Professor Lee will be able to build upon Mr Knight's efforts as he leads the VTC into the 21st century".
