It aims to address the country’s challenges in job creation and skills development by contributing to a well-aligned performance management and CPD system. 
Emphasising the importance of TVET lecturers in national human resource development, the research underscores the critical role of lecturers in shaping skilled graduates, thus contributing to economic growth, and advocates for a fair accountability process through performance appraisal in TVET colleges’ performance management systems.
