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
The world of work is undergoing a substantial transformation due to new forces. In particular, technological advances, such as AI, automation and robotics, have produced numerous new opportunities, but also given rise to urgent challenges. While new jobs are constantly being created with the emergence of the digital economy, many jobs are at risk of becoming obsolete. Digital innovations will rapidly change the demand for skills, thereby creating a wider skills gap that has the potential to hold back economic growth. Equipping people with basic or advanced digital skills promises to prepare them for unprecedented job opportunities in the digital economy. This will lead to innovation, higher productivity and competitiveness, as well as expanding markets, access to work and entrepreneurship opportunities.
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.
In view of the rapid socio-economic and technological changes, jobs and the skills required to perform them continue to evolve. Many jobs in labour intensive sectors, which tend to be occupied by economically vulnerable groups of people (such as women and the poorly educated), are at high risk of being automated. In this light, delivering job-relevant skills at a reasonable cost, especially for workers whose jobs are at risk, is important. If well implemented, ICTs in TVET have the potential to improve access to learning, to improve quality while decreasing costs, to make teaching and learning more relevant to people’s work and lives, and to encourage individuals to become lifelong learners.

At the heart of any skills system are the managers and staff of training institutions who face considerable challenges to deliver quality programmes at a time of fiscal constraint. As the expectations placed on institutions continue to grow, managers and trainers are increasingly expected to deliver flexible, responsive and current programmes based on strong partnerships with local employers that provide good employment outcomes. Because of this, there is a need for constituents to build the capacity of their institutional workforce to meet the expectations placed upon them by demand driven systems.

The platform includes a variety of practical tools and guidance materials developed by the ILO at global and national levels. The resources include guides, case studies, cheklist, visual materials and more, and they cover a wide range of topics. Some are specifically aimed at certain groups of stakeholders, for example employers, workers or governments, and some are designed to support specific groups of beneficiaries.
Within the project ‘Reimagining Education for Marginalized Girls and Boys during and post COVID-19’ ILO and Smart Lab created video tutorials for TVET teachers on how to easily produce interactive training content for E-Learning.
ILO has cooperated with Smart Lab, a Sarajevo-based company specialized in E-Learning products, within the frame of the project ‘Reimagining Education for Marginalized Girls and Boys during and post COVID-19’. This framework project involved many UN partners, like UNESCO, UNICEF and UN Volunteers. One of its results are 7 short tutorial videos explaining and guiding through the production of E-Learning materials, multimedia training content, with a freely available or low-cost software. The URL directs to the first of the tutorials, which is part of a playlist, where all of them can be found. In these videos, people working at Smart Lab explain different steps in the creation of the E-Learning content in a way which is easy to follow. While the target group of these videos are teachers in TVET, the ultimate beneficiaries are TVET students, as their education will get more engaging and flexible.
