UWI was established in 1962 with Her Royal Highness, Princess Alice, Countess of Athlone as the first Chancellor and Sir Arthur Lewis the first Vice Chancellor.
UWI comprises three main campuses (located at Mona, Jamaica, St. Augustine, Trinidad and Tobago and Cave Hill, Barbados) as well as the Centre of Hotel and Tourism Management in the Bahamas in addition to University Centres/Schools of Continuing Studies in twelve other Caribbean countries.
The project aims to contribute to economic growth through a more competitive, productive and gender-equitable workforce in the Caribbean. It aims to strengthen Caribbean institutional capacity to implement, promote and conduct quality assurance of gender-sensitive occupational standards, workforce certification, and demand-driven technical and vocational education and training (TVET). This results in increased and more meaningful employment for TVET graduates and skilled workers in the region.
