Vocational teacher

(Teacher in VET)

1. A person whose function is to impart knowledge or know-how to students or trainees in a vocational school or training centre.

2. The vocational teacher's functions tend to overlap with those of the trainer; the teacher usually works in a school situation and gives both related instruction and some, if not all, of the practical training.
