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
Apprenticeships
Quality apprenticeships based on robust social dialogue and public-private partnerships can improve employment prospects for young people while developing high level skills identified by employers as necessary for growth and increased productivity. Both informal and regulated apprenticeship systems are important learning resources enabling young people to overcome the work-inexperience trap, gain new and enhanced skills and recognized qualifications.
Upgrading informal apprenticeships and expanding regulated ones is a cost-effective way to invest in a country’s skills base, promote economic growth and enhance the employability of youth.
Research papers
Working papers, reports, and other publications from international organizations, academic institutions and bilateral agencies. Research findings to stimulate informed debate on skills, employment and productivity issues.
Los 'aprendizajes de calidad' contribuyen a igualar la demanda y la oferta de habilidades en los mercados laborales y en los sistemas de educación y formación. El diseño, la implementación y la evaluación de los sistemas de aprendizaje de calidad requieren esfuerzos colectivos de los gobier nos y sus diferentes agencias, los interlocutores sociales, como las asociaciones de empleadores y los sindicatos, y también por parte de los proveedores de formación.
OIT/Cinterfor promueve aprendizajes de calidad como una prioridad, no solo porque ayudan a los jóvenes a avanzar hacia empleos decentes, sino también a las empresas para encontrar los trabajadores que necesitan para el futuro y al mismo tiempo mejorar su productividad y competitividad.
Esta publicación tiene como objetivo proporcionar consejos prácticos a los miembros de OIT/Cinterfor y a las partes interesadas en educación y formación profesional sobre diseño, implementación y evaluación de aprendizaje de calidad, con una parte técnica y más teórica, además de experiencias prácticas y herramientas para los profesionales.
