Pages : 4

Book Description
The main findings of Cedefop's latest skill demand and supply forecast for the European Union (EU) for 2010-20, indicate that although further economic troubles will affect the projected number of job opportunities, the major trends, including a shift to more skill-intensive jobs and more jobs in services, will continue. Between 2008 and 2010 Europe lost around 5.5 million jobs due to the economic slowdown. Although substantial, this is less than feared as EU Member States and social partners introduced policy measures (including support for short-time working arrangements) to avoid job losses. Cedefop's latest 2010-20 forecast assumes that problems in the Eurozone will not lead to another crisis and that a modest recovery will bring job growth in all Member States to varying degrees. The forecast is that there will be some eight million newly created jobs, but nearly 10 times more job opportunities, around 75 million, will arise due to the need to fill the jobs of people leaving the workforce.

A Case Study of European Skill Formation in Albania

A Case Study of European Skill Formation in Albania PDF Author: Indrit Vuçaj
Publisher: Rowman & Littlefield
ISBN: 1498575285
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 173

Book Description
In the quest of becoming a competitive knowledge-driven society and nationalize the efficacy of an evolving tradition in the free labor market, Albania is increasingly pursuing policies in alignment with the European standards. The highly effective standards of the European skill formation system are serving as a guiding compass to orient policymaking institutions in Albania for developing meaningful and interplaying national alliances between the labor market and the education and training system. The institutional approach in this study thoughtfully explores the implementation impact and the field implications of the collective skill formation system in Albanian education reforms. Indrit Vucaj critically examines the manifestation of education reforms in preparation of skills for the labor market and provides interpretation of the structural, normative, and cultural-cognitive elements pertaining to the progression of addressing the process evolvement and the continuing complexity of the Albanian national skill formation system reforms as aligned with the European standards.

EQUNET is a 3-year project researching the state of equity in Higher Education in Europe. The project aims to create an evidence-based policy advocacy network, so as to promote its conclusions as a way to promote better-informed policy making on equity issues in Europe. This is the first of three annual reports, and gives a general overview of the access to Higher Education in Europe, with comparisons amongst the EU 27 + EEA countries for a number of indicators, including: - entry into Higher Education - equity as defined by socio-economic background - income and expenditure of students in Higher Education - the effect of work on studies. The report also uses this data to make insights on perceptions of equity from European policymakers, consider the validity of different ways of measuring equity and the validity of current policy-initiatives.

Knowledge, Skills and Competence in the European Labour Market

Knowledge, Skills and Competence in the European Labour Market PDF Author: Michaela Brockmann
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1136709665
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 249

Book Description
For the free movement of labour across the European Union, establishing transparency and comparability of qualifications across member states is vital. This book examines how qualifications, knowledge, skills and competences are understood in different national contexts and trans-nationally and reveals a complex picture of differences and similarities both within and between countries. Against the background of EU policy initiatives, and in particular the European Qualifications Framework, an important focus is on the prospects and difficulties of establishing cross-national recognition of qualifications. Drawing on case studies of particular sectors and occupations in England, France, Germany and the Netherlands, this insightful book, written by leading academics in the field, will be a vital resource for students and researchers involved with vocational education and training, continuing professional development, human resource management and European Union policy.
