total		5600	4,520,000,000

With a total population of 5600 the institute expects to attract around 4,520,000,000, this will ensure that Mbarara vocational institute has enough income to ensure that the organization is sustainable to meet its running costs like paying for bills.

Strengths of mbarara vocational institute

The presence of large piece of land which will enable the institute to expand when need arises
The commitment from the stake holders to enable the institute grow
The institute is dealing in educational services which are lacking in most parts of east Africa and therefore the institute will attract students from neighboring districts, Tanzania, Kenya , Rwanda and all the other parts of Uganda
The mbarara vocational institute lacks immediate competitor to the services it is providing in kigezi region this will enable it attract large numbers of students.

Weakness

The initial cost of the project is high

Currently the institute will face competition from few existing vocational institute in Uganda like Bweyogerere vocational institute.

Short Term Plan (Jan 2021-Dec 2022)

The institutes will acquire land for the construction
The institute plans to register with ministry of education and sports.
The institute plans to construct the buildings that will enable it achieve its goals and objectives
The institute will also hire teachers so that it begins offering technical education to the students.
The institute will advertise its services to ensure that community members both within and from other countries are aware of the services being offered.

Long term plan (January 2023 -2026)

The Institute also plans to partner with large industries plus also small scale manufacturers to ensure that the employees of the organizations are trained to ensure better productivity.

The Institute will then finally work on securing the whole of its property by constructing a mortar and brick wall fence all around the Institute land.

For proper management of expansion and visibility of the Institute, the management will re-align its organization by establishing coordinating centers in other regions of the country so as to enhance awareness of the Institute.

The Institute will continue to seek new ways to provide a better and more convenient teaching environment through technology. The virtual classroom teaching is a thing of the near future and the Institute is positioning themselves to be among the those who will provide such services.

The Institute also plans to introduce laptops for every student to help them be in position to catch up with the recent technologies.

The Institute plans to offer housing facilities to both teaching and non-teaching staff. The priority will first be for teachers.

Assumption

When the school gets enough funds it will be able to meet most of the challenges that it will be facing.

The funds will be specifically used for the development of the necessary infrastructures in the school which will enable the institute to provide low cost, practical education to the needy and the unprivileged youths in Uganda.

Justifications for the projects

The level of unemployment in Uganda is so high and therefore mbarara institute of vocational training will ensure that it skills the Ugandan youths so as they are self-employed to reduce on the levels of unemployment.

With a population of over 39 million, a youth population of 7.9 million (2015*), and a nominal GDP of 700 USD per capita (2017**), Uganda has a 2.3% unemployment rate among the total labour force and this unemployment has led to poverty and therefore providing them with practical technical skills is imperative to reverse the situation. According to World Bank Data, 2018.

Mbarara institute mission is to ensure that individuals and enterprises acquire the skills they need to raise productivity and income.

Private Sector Foundation Uganda (PSFU) is Uganda’s apex body for the private sector. It is made up of over 200 business associations, corporate bodies and the major public sector agencies that support private sector growth, this institutions also has encouraged the government to provide technical education since majority of the graduates donot have the skills that is needed by employers and therefore technical education that will be provided by Mbarara vocational training institute will be essential for the provision of quality and skilled manpower that can fit in the job market.
