Skills and employment policies should be viewed together. The full value of one policy set is realized when it supports the objectives of the other. For investments in education and training to yield maximum benefit to workers, enterprises, and economies, countries’ capacities for coordination is critical in three areas: connecting basic education to technical training and then to market entry; ensuring continuous communication between employers and training providers so that training meets the needs and aspirations of workers and enterprises, and integrating skills development policies with industrial, investment, trade, technology, environmental, rural and local development policies.

Education is the process of initiating and preparing man through training. It provides desirable and worthwhile broad and in depth modes of thought, skills, attitudes and understanding needed for the full development of the human thinking and actions. Education makes man aware of his own potential and responsibility to change and improve his own condition and that of his society; it embodies within it science and technology.
