Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This publication offers a brief description of Spain's vocational training system and its radical overhaul since the early 1990s in an effort to adjust to the new economic and social context in Europe. Particular attention is paid to these three subsystems: (1) regulated vocational training that reflects the impact of reforms introduced by the General Law on the Education System of 1990; (2) occupational training for the unemployed; and (3) continuing training for those in employment following the recent signature of the third national and tripartite agreements. Other aspects, such as funding, the training of teachers and trainers, and the career information and guidance system are also covered. A brief section covers the decentralization of the vocational training system now underway as part of the devolution of powers from central government to the autonomous communities. The last chapter reviews current trends in vocational training and the outlook for them. Appendixes include abbreviations, acronyms, and a list of 9 principal bodies responsible for provision or regulation of vocational training. (Contains 20 references.)(YLB).

This book was released on 1987 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Vocational training in Spain suffers from a fundamental initial disadvantage, namely the subsidiary position that it occupies in the general structure of the country's educational system. The situation has been aggravated by the sector's relative neglect by the government, which has been forced to concentrate its efforts on secondary and university education as a result of the rapid population growth that occurred throughout the 1970s. The remainder of society is also rather uninterested in vocational training and views it primarily as the educational option for those who do not successfully complete their elementary education. The general attitude from industry is that vocational education does not provide adequate preparation for today's jobs and that its content is not geared toward meeting industry's needs. More than once, the government has recognized the need for closer cooperation with the employment sector in planning course content and developing occupational profiles to guide vocational training. In general, however, the lack of labor planning and clear employment forecasts have allowed vocational education to continue concentrating on sectors of the job market that are currently saturated and to give inadequate attention to sectors that are currently expanding or of vital importance to the economy. As in academic education, theory is given preeminence over practice in vocational training. The lack of teaching resources appropriate to preparation for the contemporary world of work is another of the problems inherent in the vocational education system. Closer links between vocational education and industry are difficult to establish since the formal vocational training system begins at age 14, which is two years before youth can legally hold jobs. A map of Europe and two diagrams are provided in color; tables, figures, and a bibliography are also included. (MN)

Book Synopsis Vocational Education and Training in Times of Economic Crisis by : Matthias Pilz
Download or read book Vocational Education and Training in Times of Economic Crisis written by Matthias Pilz and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-12-20 with total page 490 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book brings together a broad range of approaches and methodologies relevant to international comparative vocational education and training (VET). Revealing how youth in transition is affected by economic crises, it provides essential insights into the strengths and weaknesses of the various systems and prospects of VET in contexts ranging from North America to Europe, (e.g. Spain, Germany or the UK) to Asia (such as China, Thailand and India). Though each country examined in this volume is affected by the economic crisis in a different way, the effects are especially apparent for the young generation. In many countries the youth unemployment rate is still very high and the job perspectives for young people are often limited at best. The contributions in this volume demonstrate that VET alone cannot solve these problems, but can be used to support a smooth transition from school to work. If the quality of VET is high and the status and job expectations are good, VET can help to fill the skills gap, especially at the intermediate skill level. Furthermore, VET can also offer a realistic alternative to the university track for young people in many countries.
Book Synopsis Applied Pedagogies for Higher Education by : Dawn A. Morley

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This open access book critiques real world learning across both the curriculum and extracurricular activities. Drawing on disciplines as diverse as business, health, fashion, sociology and geography, the editors and authors employ a cross-disciplinary approach to examine how this concept is being applied in higher education. Divided into three parts, the authors and contributors analyse broader applications of real world learning, student experience of practicing in a real world setting, and how learning strategies can be employed to engage students in real world learning. The editors and contributors provide up-to-date, cross-disciplinary and international insights into how real world learning could be integrated into the higher education curriculum to support effective, relevant and life-long learning for 21st century students.
Book Synopsis Spain by : Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development
Download or read book Spain written by Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development and published by OECD. This book was released on 1986 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recent reforms affecting every aspect of Spain's educational system are reviewed in this report. The first part presents the observations of three educators from other European countries ("The Examiners' Report"). Part 2 is a "Record of the Review Meeting" held in Paris in December of 1985 10 months after the examiners' visit to Spain. Questions of the examiners and other attendees are addressed to the Spanish delegation (of 10 members) and partly based on the "Summary of the Background Report." The latter forms part 3 of this document, a publication of the Center for Educational Research and Documentation, Madrid (1985). The Review Meeting Report includes a brief by the Spanish Minister of Education and Science on legislative and other educational reforms underway in Spain. Subsequent discussion deals with many concerns. Questions of determining priorities are raised between capital expenditure and teacher training, both preservice and inservice. While decentralization is desirable, caution must be exercised to avoid inequalities of resources and educational opportunities between various regions. The quality of education and the reduction of the high dropout rate is the overriding concern of the reforms at the lower secondary level. At the upper secondary level the report criticizes the out-of-date curriculum for upper-ability students and low esteem and lack of resources for vocational students. The advantages of a comprehensive education and training system are discussed. Of major concern are the effects of rapid enrollment increases at teaching training institutions and the high drop-out rate in the initial years of study for prospective teachers. Ways and means of increasing the graduation success rate while enhancing the universities' research role are considered. (KWL)

This book was released on 2000 with total page 88 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report describes and analyzes the situation of nonformal learning in Spain. Chapter 1 describes the Spanish context by looking at qualification as the point of departure; recent changes in the industrial fabric of Spain and the birth of a new social and institutional view of qualification; the reform of vocational education and training; informal learning in Spain; and the status of work experience in the social debate. Chapter 2 describes and analyzes the schemes and initiatives set up to identify, recognize, and establish the role played by nonformal learning in the social process of constructing qualifications. Five areas in which nonformal learning is recognized and assessed are addressed: the role played by nonformal learning in public employment policies; the status given to nonformal learning by the education authorities, provisions for access to the formal education system, and the scope for recognition of nonformal qualifications; the new national system of qualifications and the creation of the national institute for qualifications; certificates of occupational proficiency; and recognition of nonformal learning within the field of collective bargaining. Chapter 3 considers the direction in which recognition of work-based learning will move, including certificates of occupational proficiency and vocational titles. Chapter 4 draws conclusions. (Appendixes contain a 96-item bibliography and a list of abbreviations.) (YLB)

Book Synopsis Vocational Education and Training in Sweden by : Małgorzata Kuczera
Download or read book Vocational Education and Training in Sweden written by Małgorzata Kuczera and published by Org. for Economic Cooperation & Development. This book was released on 2019 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of a series of studies on vocational education and training, this review focuses on the vocational education and training (VET) in Sweden and concludes with policy recommendations. Over recent years, Sweden has launched a series of reforms to enhance involvement of social partners in VET, to increase provision of work-based learning in VET programmes and to promote apprenticeship. Higher vocational education and training launched in 2002 has been expanding. At the same time, numerous sectors are grappling with labour shortages increasing pressure on VET to better match the provision to changing demand for skills; and fewer young people opt for VET programmes than in the past. This report suggests several ways in which the Swedish VET system may respond to these challenges. Sweden may encourage co-operation between schools, for example by linking it to school evaluation and funding criteria. The report also argues that Sweden may further enhance social partners' involvement in VET by creating a framework for systematic social partners' involvement at the local level and by providing social partners with more responsibility over some aspects of VET.
Book Synopsis Analysing Erasmus+ Vocational Education and Training Funding in Europe by : Carlos de Olagüe-Smithson
Download or read book Analysing Erasmus+ Vocational Education and Training Funding in Europe written by Carlos de Olagüe-Smithson and published by Springer. This book was released on 2019-06-27 with total page 153 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume presents an analysis of the Erasmus+ funding process. It examines the first 3 years of the programme to discover if the funds are being distributed homogeneously throughout the regions of France, Germany, Italy, Spain and the United Kingdom. If it turns out that funds are being unevenly delivered this could result in an inequity situation: students living in specific regions might have greater chances to benefit from KA102 funds, while other students might have fewer opportunities to benefit from these funds. The book looks in detail at the implementation and performance of the various programmes within Erasmus+, the funds and distribution of these funds, and the number of students in the programmes. The book studies these five countries because they contain more than half of all the vocational education and training students in the European Union. Also, these countries had the most students participating in mobilities during the previous Leonardo da Vinci programme. Hence, it is to be expected that the conclusions drawn in this study are representative of the situation of VET mobilities and Erasmus+ funding in Europe. Erasmus+ is the European programme in charge of fostering the development of transnational programmes in the areas of education, training, sports and youth policies. It is focused on the adaptation to a fast changing world, tackling youth unemployment, and preparing workers for highly skilled jobs. Erasmus+ integrates former programmes such as the Lifelong Learning Programme, Youth in Action, and the various international Higher Education and Sports programmes. It started in 2014 and will be active until 2020.
