Abstract
The main problem for Saudi youth is that the skills they learn in technical and vocational courses do not match the job market requirements. The problem is more serious in the case of women. Many factors at various levels contribute to this problem. A qualitative review using 37 papers revealed many important findings towards solutions to this problem. One solution is that educational institutions and employers collaborate to ensure job-relevant skills with some practical experience through apprenticeships in the industry for students of technical and vocational courses. The use of AI and ML methods in teaching and learning may solve the problem of providing the required skills and enhancing its quality. However, evidence for concrete suggestions on which tool to use for which purpose is scarce. This is due to very few papers available on directly relevant aspects. Hence, more research on specific applications of AI and ML in specific areas of technical and vocational teaching and learning needs to be done.
