The research aims to study the reality of strategic planning for vocational and technical education and its role in achieving the needs of the labor market. The research uses the descriptive analytical method. 314 forms were distributed to administrators and teachers in the schools of vocational and technical education in the Province of Latakia. Using appropriate statistical methods, the research comes up with some important results: Weaknesses of technical and vocational education reduce its efficiency. This is reflected in the lack of any follow-up programs or any contact of school vocational education with their graduates; and the unavailability of a system accident insurance for trainers and teachers in high-risk workshops; and the weakness of the curriculum in terms of its ability to rehabilitate the student to enter the labor market. The equipment available in technical and vocational education is not well-looked and safety standards are not high and in laboratories and workshops and do not fit with the nature of the disciplines. There are obvious weakness in the role of vocational and technical education in achieving the needs of the labor market, despite the existence of legislation and laws to qualify it to carry out its role in the development of work skills. This is evident in discouraging the private sector from setting up projects of technical education and vocational training as well as in the absence of community participation in management and financing of technical and vocational education. Therefore, is important to twin between the curricula and training programs and the requirements of economic development plans. There is also the need to keep up with technological developments.
