Book Scenarios and Strategies for Vocational Education and Lifelong Learning in Europe

Download or read book Scenarios and Strategies for Vocational Education and Lifelong Learning in Europe written by Burkart Sellin and published by . This book was released on 2002 with total page 72 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The scenarios project set out to develop a tool to improve understanding of vocational education and training (VET) systems in the linked contexts of economic and technological change; changes in society, work, and the labor market; and changing training/skills environment. Other key attempts at the European level to generate European scenarios were five scenarios that were the work of the "cellule prospective" and four scenarios developed in preparation for the French presidency of the European Union. Phase 1 of the project consisted of design of a questionnaire, its completion in a survey of 200-300 experts in each of 10 participating countries, and analysis of results. It established provisional scenarios and identified strategies for further examination. Phase 2 combined further analysis of Phase 1 results and trends, followed by a predominantly qualitative approach to exploring intersections between a range of scenarios and a set of strategies. Project findings indicated 4 areas may provide a focus for the next 10 years: the social dimension of VET and lifelong learning; public and private partnerships; compatible national and European structures of educational and VET qualifications and provision and promotion of European standards; and modernization of work. These three major scenarios were identified at the European level: Europe on the edge, protective and incremental Europe, and sustainable and competitive Europe. (Contains 21 references) (YLB).

Book excerpt: Vocational education often is ignored during discussions of secondary education reform even though it accounts for between 25 percent and 79 percent of upper secondary enrollment in the former centrally-planned countries of the European Union.

The author explores strategic human resource management through chapters on managing change in strategy, structure, and culture; the role of human resource planning, and types of employment system. He also reviews some of the key issues in managing different employee groups. These themes are problem- and issue- focused and extensively illustrated throughout with case study examples.

Book The European Union and the Gulf Cooperation Council

Download or read book The European Union and the Gulf Cooperation Council written by Adel Abdel Ghafar and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-08-03 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a comprehensive assessment of the various dimensions of the relationship between the European Union and the Gulf Cooperation Council, and highlights how relations are yet to reach their full potential. Despite both parties sharing a number of common interests, including trade, energy, climate change, security and cultural cooperation, the multilateral cooperation framework remains limited, with most engagement taking place bilaterally, between individual European and GCC countries. The book reassesses the potential and prospects for the EU’s engagement with GCC countries based on the recalibration and reconciliation of both parties’ national and regional interests. Taking a thematic approach, each of the three sections of the book examines a key dimension of the relationship, its current status and its path forward.
