Gathering, therefore, it has an important potential in terms of increasing the quality of vocational and technical education.The opportunities it provides in terms of on-the-job training and as the interaction with the private sector increases, the quality of the professional increases and technical education institutions in OIZs provide many opportunities for students to improve themselves.
