Download or read book Education and Youth Employment in Sweden and Denmark written by Carnegie Council on Policy Studies in Higher Education and published by . This book was released on 1980 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Part one of this book on education and youth employment gives extensive data and information on the behavior and attitudes of youth in Sweden, explanations for rising unemployment in that country, the government's policies to combat youth unemployment, and a description of the Swedish educational system. The emergence of the permissive society in Sweden has brought growing participation in intellectual, physical, vocational, and citizenship activities as well as a rise of negative and destructive phenomena. At the same time, youth unemployment has risen as employment in the manufacturing industries and the private sectors of the economy has declined. Measures instituted to ameliorate the unemployment problem include granting government subsidies to employers who hire and train young workers, increasing and facilitating access to education, and increasing the capacity of the employment service to handle placement and counseling. Part two of the book comprises a brief discussion of youth unemployment in Denmark, including a profile of the typical unemployed youth, a description of some experimental Danish schools, and suggestions for the future.

Download or read book Vocational Education in the Nordic Countries written by Christian Helms Jørgensen and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-05-15 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Vocational Education in the Nordic Countries: Learning from Diversity is the second of two books that disseminates new and systematic knowledge on the strengths and weaknesses of the different models of vocational education and training (VET) in four Nordic countries. Vocational education in Europe has resisted standardisation to a higher degree than other fields of education, and during the last decade, there has been a growth in international, comparative VET research. While the Nordic countries provide an ideal case for comparative education studies, the literature in English on the Nordic VET systems is at present very limited. This book provides thorough examinations of VET in Sweden, Denmark, Norway and Finland. Each section examines the current challenges for VET, compares how these challenges are managed, and explores recent reforms and institutional innovations. Contributors also analyse institutions and policies at the national level and include comparative studies of two occupations at the micro-level in the four countries. The book explores what can be learned from the diversity of the VET systems in the Nordic countries, which otherwise have many similarities and share a common heritage in education policy. This volume will help strengthen the knowledge base required for transnational policy learning, and for developing vocational education internationally for the future. As a result, the book will be of interest to researchers, academics and postgraduate students involved in the study of vocational education, educational studies and educational policy, as well as policy makers.
