Other sources
Experts from many international, regional and national agencies generously share their views, experiences and findings on skills, helping policy-makers among other stakeholders to understand the linkages between education, training and the world of work, and how to integrate skills into national development planning to promote employment and economic growth.

Career guidance and employment services

Career guidance and counselling, career education and lifelong development of skills for employability are key for success in learning activities, effective career transitions, livelihood planning, entrepreneurship and in increasing labour market participation. They are instrumental in promoting skills utilization, recognition (RPL), as well as in improving enterprise human resource management.
Career development activities encompass a wide variety of support activities including career information and advice, counselling, work exposure (e.g. job shadowing, work experience periods), assessment, coaching, mentoring, professional networking, advocacy, basic and employability skills training (curricular and non-curricular) and entrepreneurship training. It is often an area which is fragmented across different ministries (e.g. education, TVET, employment, youth) requiring an effort to achieve the necessary coordination to provide adequate support to individuals during learning, employment and unemployment/inactivity periods.
Participation of employers' and workers' organizations

The world of learning and the world of work are separate but linked. While one involves learning, the other produces goods and services. Neither can thrive without the other. Strong partnerships between government, employers and workers help ensure the relevance of training to the changing needs of enterprises and labour markets.

Dans un paysage de concurrence mondiale sans pré- cédent, de technologie en évolution rapide, de normes de régulation mondiales, de populations de plus en plus mobiles et d’apparition constante de nouveaux emplois et de nouvelles palettes de compétences, l’introduction d’éléments nouveaux – de nouvelles formes d’offre et de certification – dans l’enseignement et la formation professionnels (EFP) n’a rien de surprenant. L’EFP n’est plus le pré carré des systèmes nationaux. De nouveaux acteurs – organismes sectoriels internationaux, agences multilatérales, sociétés multinationales – se sont implantés sur le territoire, modifiant les modes de transmission, d’acquisition et d’évaluation des compétences. Reconnaissant l’importance de cette tendance, cette Note présente les perspectives et défis de la formation professionnelle mondiale.
