ILO

The International Labour Organization is the tripartite U.N. agency that promotes Decent Work through employment, social security, labour standards and social dialogue. Its work on skills development is guided by the conceptual framework on Skills to improve productivity, employment growth, and development agreed in 2008 by representatives of Governments, Employers’ Associations and Workers’ Associations. Research, policy advice, and pilot projects and technical cooperation programmes to apply good practices in different circumstances across its 185 member States aims to boost the employability of workers, the productivity and competitiveness of enterprises, and the inclusiveness of economic growth. The ILO Secretariat in offices in 40 countries works with Ministries of Labour, employers’ organizations, and trade unions to integrate skills development into national and sector development strategies in order to better meet current labour market needs and to prepare for the jobs of the future; to expand access to employment-related training so that youth, persons with disabilities and other vulnerable groups are better able to acquire skills and secure productive and decent work; and to improve the ability of public employment services to provide career guidance, maintain labour exchange services, and deliver active labour market programmes.For more information regarding the ILO’s work on skills and employability go to: http://www.ilo.org/skills/lang--en/index.htm; for ILO/Cinterfor's Knowledge Management Plarform, see: http://www.oitcinterfor.org

Access to training

Thumbnail

Access for all to good quality education, vocational training and workplace learning is a fundamental principle of social cohesion and economic growth. Some groups of people may require targeted attention if they are to benefit from education, training and employment opportunities.  

This is particularly the case for disadvantaged youth, lower skilled workers, people with disabilities, and people in rural communities. The attractiveness of vocational education and training is enhanced when combined with entrepreneurship training and when public policies encourage utilization of higher skills by business.

Lifelong learning

Thumbnail

There is a critical need for a greater overall investment in education and training, particularly in developing countries. Education and training investments should be closely linked to economic and employment growth strategies and programmes. Responsibility should be shared between the government (primary responsibility), enterprises, the social partners, and the individual. To make lifelong learning for all a reality, countries will need to make major reforms of their vocational and education and training systems. School-to-work schemes for young people should integrate education with workplace learning. Training systems need to become more flexible and responsive to rapidly changing skill requirements. Reforms should also focus on how learning can be facilitated, not just on training for specific occupational categories.

Esta discusión invita a los representantes de los gobiernos, a las organizaciones de empleadores y de trabajadores, a los profesionales de la educación y formación técnica y a los instructores, a las ONG y a las personas, entre otros, a compartir y discutir cómo mantener el aprendizaje continuo y el desarrollo de competencias entre aquéllos que se incorporan a la fuerza de trabajo, los aprendices y los trabajadores en tiempos de crisis. También tiene por objeto analizar prácticas innovadoras pertinentes y oportunas en materia de aprendizaje y educación.

El mundo del trabajo está viéndose profundamente afectado por el COVID-19. No sólo corre peligro la salud de millones de personas, sino que también están en juego sus medios de sustento y su bienestar a largo plazo. En las últimas semanas, la pandemia del coronavirus (COVID-19) ha planteado retos únicos para todos los tipos y niveles de aprendizaje, incluida la escolarización, la EFTP, los aprendizajes y el desarrollo de competencias. Además, también ha estimulado la discusión sobre la necesidad de acelerar la innovación en el aprendizaje en línea, y la facilitación de EFTP y de formación para la adquisición de competencias. Para más información sobre el impacto más amplio de COVID-19 en el empleo y los trabajos, y sobre las posibles medidas de mitigación, descargue la nota informativa de la OIT que figura más abajo.

En este contexto, tenemos la oportunidad de analizar el concepto de “aprendizaje y formación en cualquier lugar, en cualquier momento”, que se trata de una idea central para el concepto de aprendizaje permanente.

 

Debemos explorar asimismo metodologías de aprendizaje innovadoras para los aprendices y los trabajadores que adquieren o mejoran sus competencias fundamentalmente en el lugar de trabajo.

Esta discusión electrónica pretende aumentar los conocimientos sobre prácticas innovadoras en materia de educación y formación, en particular las que están utilizando la tecnología para promover el desarrollo de competencias. La discusión electrónica también nos permitirá considerar los nuevos retos que se plantean en el contexto actual a medida que avanzamos hacia formas en línea de aprendizaje y de desarrollo de competencias, en particular cómo asegurarnos de que nadie quede excluido de las nuevas formas de aprendizaje y formación.

Para comenzar la discusión, le invitamos a que formule comentarios sobre los siguientes temas:

Preguntas de la segunda semana
1. ¿Qué enfoques nuevos e innovadores del aprendizaje y el desarrollo de competencias ha observado en su entorno desde el inicio de la pandemia?

2. ¿En qué medida pueden adaptarse los educandos a estas formas nuevas y cambiantes de formación y aprendizaje?

3. ¿Qué medidas se están adoptando a fin de asegurar que los educandos potenciales conozcan las soluciones de aprendizaje existentes y puedan acceder a ellas y utilizarlas de manera autónoma?

4. ¿Prevé que la situación actual tendrá un impacto en el concepto de aprendizaje permanente?

5. ¿Qué nuevas formas de alianzas, por ejemplo, alianzas público-privadas y colaboraciones, están surgiendo durante este período de crisis?
