Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The primary aim of this book is to shed light on the vital role of technical and vocational courses in schools and their potential to lead to apprenticeships and ultimately secure better job opportunities for youth. The modern world is rapidly evolving, with technology advancing at an unprecedented pace. As a result, the job market is becoming increasingly competitive, demanding diverse skills and expertise. Our education system must adapt to these changes and equip students with the knowledge and skills to thrive professionally. Technical and vocational courses have often been undervalued or overlooked in favour of traditional academic pathways. However, they are the cornerstone of a well-rounded and adaptable education system. These courses provide students with practical skills and instill a strong work ethic, problem-solving abilities, and a keen understanding of industry-specific demands. My book will explore the significance of technical and vocational education, offering a comprehensive overview of the benefits it can provide. The book discusses how courses can lead to apprenticeships, an invaluable bridge between education and the job market. Apprenticeships allow students to gain hands-on experience, develop their skills, and establish a solid foundation for a promising career. The book serves as a guide and source of inspiration for youth, students, and parents, encouraging them to consider the many opportunities available through technical and vocational education. By focusing on these courses, we can empower our youth to make informed decisions about their future and embark on a path to secure better job prospects and a brighter tomorrow.

Download or read book Private Sector Development in an Emerging World written by Diederik Boer and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2023-12-04 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the interactions between private sector development, public policies and societal institutions with a strong view on contributing to sustainable and inclusive development in emerging countries. The private sector is often praised as an engine of economic growth. This belief has led to significant efforts to promote private sector development in emerging countries. Development agencies prioritize private sector development and national governments are following suit, resulting in often huge incentives to stimulate and attract private investment. However, private sector development is not a panacea for sustainable and inclusive development as the past decades have clearly shown. Economic growth, societal development and environmental sustainability are often in a sharp conflict; and more often than not economic growth has failed to improve the lives of all citizens. This book examines the role the state and the private sector should play to benefit from the dynamics of business development, while ensuring that these benefits are shared broadly without jeopardizing sustainability. The views presented differ in detail, but the analyses and case studies presented share common themes, namely that the relative roles of state and private sector of should be balanced and that this particular balance should be based on the context of each country in order to make the private-public sector interaction work for all people.

This book was released on 2018-02-21 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book functions as a research monograph about people. Specifically why and how do people help others? What do they do, how and why do they get involved, who do they learn from, and teach, also what do they learn and share? Restating this research question in academic English: What motivates individuals to join and take part in social enterpriseÕs and other organizations, what behaviours do they exhibit, do they join or form groups that can be labelled as Òcommunities of practiceÓ, and do they undertake and deliver situated learning, as part of their knowledge transfer processes? The topic has been studied qualitatively via interpretative phenomenological analysis and related methodologies. Over 30 interviews, from disparate groups in the UK and Poland have been analysed in depth. The outcome has been to identify common factors in individuals behaviours, motivations and interactions.

Download or read book The Relative Effects of Skill Formation and Job Matching on Wage Growth in Ethiopia written by Taye Mengistae and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 1999 with total page 49 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: April 1999 - Estimated age and job seniority profiles of wages and marginal productivity in Ethiopia suggest that both skill formation and job matching significantly affect growth of wages and productivity over time. However, job matching is by far the more important of the two sources of growth in wages and productivity. Mengistae analyzes production and labor market data for a random selection of small to medium-size firms in Ethiopia to answer two questions: Does a worker's marginal productivity increase with time in the labor market or with job seniority, as must be the case if on-the-job skill formation or job matching has anything to do with the dynamics of wages observed in the data? Assuming that marginal productivity grows with experience or seniority, is skill formation more or less important than job matching as a source of growth in productivity? The main feature of Mengistae's analysis is the joint regression of the log of the average product of hours in a firm and the log of average hourly earnings of a firm's employees on the shares of experience-seniority cells of workers in total annual hours in the firm. Marginal productivity falls as experience in the labor market passes the 15-year mark, but the expected marginal product of a mobile worker with 16 or more years of experience is still nearly 80 percent higher than that of the base group. The between-jobs growth of hourly wages with potential experience is also large, but not as large as growth in marginal productivity for workers with less than 15 years of experience. Mengistae concludes that job matching is far more important than skill formation as a source of growth in productivity. Net mobility gains account for at least twice the share of the return to skill formation in the observed between-jobs growth of wages with market experience. The rate of return to skills formation is higher in the United States than in Ethiopia. The relative return to skills formation is probably lower in Ethiopia partly because the flow of information about the labor market is more restricted there. This paper-a product of the Development Research Group-is part of a larger effort in the group to identify firm-level sources of growth in productivity.

Download or read book Contemporary Apprenticeship written by Alison Fuller and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-06-11 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Throughout the world, people understand the meaning of 'apprenticeship'. As a model of learning and skill formation, apprenticeship has adapted over the years to reflect changes in work, in technology, and in the types of knowledge that underpin occupational expertise. Apprenticeship serves the needs of government, as well as employers, individuals and society more generally. These needs have always co-existed in dynamic tension. This book explores the contemporary state of apprenticeship in Europe, the United States, Canada, and Ghana. The chapters present perspectives from leading researchers in the field, showing how apprenticeship is evolving and changing in every country (crossing boundaries of age, sector and levels of skill and knowledge) and examining the ability of apprenticeship to facilitate both vertical progression – particularly to higher education – and horizontal progression between jobs and sectors. As such, apprenticeship remains at the core of debates about vocational learning and the nature of expertise. This book was originally published as a special issue of the Journal of Vocational Education and Training.

Download or read book Economic Citizenship in the European Union written by Paul Teague and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2005-10-25 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Paul Teague explores the macro-economic, productive and institutional pressures faced by Europe's social model and assesses a number of economic and political programmes aimed at resolving the crisis. It also considers the role of the European Union building a social dimension to the European economy. The findings suggest that the future of traditional institutions of Social Europe is under threat. However, they also stress that we are not on the threshold of the 'Americanisation' of European life. This study finds that the influential political forces that reject the dismantling of Europe's social model should not be preoccupied with defending inherited institutions. Instead this book argues that they should encourage the construction of new forms of social solidarity compatible with the complexities of modern economic life.
