Download or read book The Financing of Continuing Training in Denmark written by Birthe Hedegaard and published by . This book was released on 1990 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Denmark, suppliers of continuing training constitute the point at which the sources of finance meet the people who receive continuing training. On the basis of this close connection between training suppliers and the financial sources behind them, continuing training activities can be subdivided into these five categories: (1) continuing training activities supplied by public resources; (2) labor market training schemes; (3) training activities of industry and labor market organizations; (4) continuing training courses offered on the open market; and (5) in-house continuing training. For salaried employees (white-collar workers) and public employees, continuing training opportunities depend on the individual's job function and position and are very diverse. Generally, salaried employees in the private sector participate primarily in continuing training schemes financed mainly by their employers, through participants' fees. About 80 percent of public training schemes are financed through taxation. The continuing training of salaried employees in the public sector is financed predominantly through taxation by means of participants' fees paid to commercial course suppliers and professional associations. For the industrial sector, labor market training schemes are of paramount importance. The financial structure of labor market courses was initially tax-financed but is now fund-financed. Few firms have in-house training. (The 21-item bibliography is in Danish.) (YLB)
Download or read book Vocational Education and Training in Denmark written by Pia Cort and published by . This book was released on 2002 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Denmark has a uniform, nationwide vocational education and training (VET) system that provides qualifications that are valid throughout the country and recognized by employers and trade unions. Initial VET (IVET) includes the following components: VET, including commercial and technical training; basic social and health care training; agricultural training; and maritime training. All IVET programs teach the vocational skills necessary for a trade or profession and give access to higher education. Periods of school IVET alternate with periods of in-company training based on apprenticeship contracts. Continuing VET is provided primarily through Denmark's labor market training system (arbejdmarkedsuddannelserne [AMU]), which is designed to give, maintain, and improve participants' vocational skills in accordance with enterprises' needs and background. AMU courses take place exclusively at vocational schools and 24 independent AMU centers. Tertiary VET, consisting of short, vocationally oriented programs, and open education programs are also offered at vocational schools. IVET and tertiary VET are under the auspices of the Ministry of Education, whereas AMU is under authority of Denmark's Ministry of Labour. Active participation by social partners is a central element of Denmark's VET system. A list of acronyms, the addresses of 9 relevant organizations, and a bibliography of 32 online and print resources are appended. (Contains 15 figures.) (MN).

Download or read book Vocational Training in Denmark written by Werner Rasmussen and published by Berlin : European Centre for the Development of Vocational Training. This book was released on 1988 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Denmark has a wide range of basic vocational training courses that can be begun immediately after completion of lower secondary school, i.e., after students complete their compulsory education at the age of 15 or 16). This is not to say that there is no vocational education at the primary and secondary levels, where guest teachers from working life lecture students and where training and vocational guidance are provided beginning in the seventh grade. The upper secondary vocational training combines a basis year of training and apprenticeship. Besides basic vocational training, the Danish system offers updating and refresher training and further training (the latter being intended to extend vocational qualifications). Vocational education has been addressed by Danish law since the 1857 Freedom of Trade Act and the Apprenticeship Act of 1889. More recent vocational education-related legislation has clarified rights to joint ownership of firms' capital or profits and the provision of employment and training to unemployed persons. Besides the Ministry of Labour, unions and four levels of advisory bodies are also involved in administering vocational education. As in other countries, Denmark is currently in the process of reassessing the goals of its vocational education system in light of the country's current economic problems and the trend toward a global economy.

Download or read book International Comparisons of Vocational Education and Training for Intermediate Skills written by Paul Ryan and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-07-23 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Paul Ryan has brought together the writings of the most prominent British research into vocational preparation in Britain in comparison to the other advanced economies, primarily within the EEC. The book, originally published in 1991, documents various aspects of inadequacy in British practice at the time, concentrating upon intermediate skills, which are of crucial importance for economic performance. The introduction outlines the strengths and weaknesses of comparative research. Part 1 discusses the use which has been made of it by policy makers in Britain and various aspects of comparative methods in practical comparisons, including an Anglo-Scottish one. Part 2 concerns vocational preparation in connection with productivity and produce markets, noting its importance for economic performance and its dependence upon companies’ product choices. Part 3 contains studies of the organization of skills and work and the finance of training within the EEC as a whole. Part 4 comprises studies of training in relation to labour market structures, each of which indicates similar alternatives for training policy in Britain – alternatives whose relevance and political prospects can only be enhanced by the demise of Thatcher government deregulatory policies.
