Part one of the book investigates trends in demand for skills in the country overall and by sectors, explores its possible determinants, and attempts to identify emerging skills gaps. Part two turns to the analysis of the supply of skills in the country with a focus on the ability of education and training to provide highly skilled labor, keeping workers' skills updated, and providing skills development opportunities for the unskilled. It explores employers' perceptions on the quality of institutions and provides detailed analysis of the main characteristics, outcomes, and challenges in four key (or growing) subsectors of the provision of skills in the country: higher education, postsecondary technical-vocational education, non-formal secondary education, and postemployment training. It concludes with a summary of policy recommendations.CC BY 3.0 IGOACADEMIC SKILLSACADEMIC SUBJECTSACADEMIC YEARACCREDITATIONACCREDITATION SYSTEMACHIEVEMENTACTIVE LABORACTIVE LABOR POLICIESADULTSADVANCED SKILLSAGE GROUPSAGGREGATE PRODUCTIVITYAGGREGATE PRODUCTIVITY GROWTHBASIC EDUCATIONBASIC EDUCATION SYSTEMCALLCAREER OPPORTUNITIESCOLLEGE ENTRANCECOLLEGE GRADUATESCREATIVE THINKINGCURRICULACURRICULUMCURRICULUM DESIGNDECISION MAKINGDEMAND FOR EDUCATIONDEMONSTRATIONDISADVANTAGED STUDENTSDOMESTIC MARKETDRIVERSEDUCATED WORKERSEDUCATION BUDGETEDUCATION INSTITUTIONSEDUCATION LEVELEDUCATION SECTOREDUCATION SYSTEMEDUCATIONAL ATTAINMENTEDUCATIONAL DISTRIBUTIONEDUCATIONAL INSTITUTIONSEDUCATIONAL REQUIREMENTSEMPLOYABILITYEMPLOYEEEMPLOYMENTEMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITIESEMPLOYMENT PERFORMANCEEMPLOYMENT RATEEMPLOYMENT STATUSENTREPRENEURIAL SKILLSESSENTIAL SKILLSEXAMEXAMSFIELDS OF STUDYFIRM LEVELFIRM PERFORMANCEFIRM SIZEFIRM SURVEYFIRM SURVEYSFORMAL EDUCATIONFORMAL TRAININGFUNCTIONAL SKILLSGENERIC SKILLSGERGROSS ENROLLMENTGROSS ENROLLMENT RATEHIGH SCHOOLHIGH UNEMPLOYMENTHIGH UNEMPLOYMENT RATESHIGHER EDUCATIONHIGHER EDUCATION INSTITUTIONHIGHER EDUCATION INSTITUTIONSHIGHER EDUCATION QUALIFICATIONSHUMAN CAPITALHUMAN DEVELOPMENTHUMAN RESOURCESILLITERACYILLITERATESIN-SERVICE TRAININGINDUSTRY WAGEINSTRUCTIONINSTRUCTIONAL TECHNOLOGYINTERNSHIPSJOB TRAININGJOB TURNOVERJOB VACANCIESJOBSLABOR DEMANDLABOR FORCELABOR MARKETLABOR MARKET NEEDSLABOR MARKET OUTCOMESLABOR MARKET SEGMENTATIONLABOR MARKETSLABOR PRODUCTIVITYLABOR PRODUCTIVITY GROWTHLABOR REALLOCATIONLEADERSHIPLEARNINGLEARNING MODULESLEVEL OF EDUCATIONLIFE SKILLSLIFELONG LEARNINGLITERACYLITERACY SERVICELITERACY SKILLSMATHEMATICSNONGOVERNMENTAL ORGANIZATIONSNUMERACYOCCUPATIONOCCUPATIONAL CLASSIFICATIONOCCUPATIONSON-THE-JOB TRAININGPAPERSPARENTAL EDUCATIONPAYROLL TAXESPEDAGOGICAL PRACTICESPEDAGOGYPERFORMANCE INDICATORSPRIMARY EDUCATIONPRIVATE EDUCATIONPRIVATE INSTITUTIONSPRIVATE PARTNERSHIPSPRIVATE PROVIDERSPRIVATE SCHOOLSPRIVATE SECTORPRIVATE TRAININGPRIVATE TRAINING INSTITUTIONSPROBLEM SOLVINGPRODUCTION WORKERSPRODUCTIVE SECTORPRODUCTIVITY GROWTHPUBLIC INSTITUTIONSQUALITY ASSURANCEQUALITY EDUCATIONQUALITY OF EDUCATIONRATES OF RETURNREGIONAL TRAININGRESEARCH CAPACITYRETRAININGRETURNS TO EDUCATIONRISING UNEMPLOYMENTSCHOLARSHIP PROGRAMSCHOLARSHIP PROGRAMSSCHOLARSHIPSSCHOOL EDUCATIONSCHOOL YEARSSCHOOLINGSCIENCE STUDYSECONDARY EDUCATIONSECONDARY SCHOOLINGSECONDARY SCHOOLSSERVICE PROVIDERSERVICE SECTORSERVICE SECTORSSERVICE TRAININGSHORT-TERM TRAININGSKILL ACQUISITIONSKILL DEVELOPMENTSKILL PREMIUMSKILL REQUIREMENTSSKILL SHORTAGESSKILL TRAININGSKILLED LABORSKILLED WORKERSKILLED WORKERSSKILLED WORKFORCESKILLS ACQUISITIONSKILLS DEVELOPMENTSKILLS REQUIREMENTSSTANDARDIZED TESTSSTUDENT ENROLLMENTSUBJECT AREASTEACHERTEACHER QUALIFICATIONTEACHER QUALIFICATIONSTEACHINGTEACHING QUALITYTECHNICAL EDUCATIONTECHNOLOGICAL INNOVATIONTECHNOLOGICAL INNOVATIONSTERTIARY EDUCATIONTOTAL FACTOR PRODUCTIVITYTOTAL WAGETRAINEESTRAINING CENTERTRAINING CENTERSTRAINING COURSESTRAINING DURATIONTRAINING INSTITUTIONSTRAINING OPPORTUNITIESTRAINING PLANTRAINING PROGRAMSTRAINING SYSTEMUNEMPLOYEDUNEMPLOYMENTUNEMPLOYMENT RATESUNIVERSITIESUNSKILLED WORKERSVOCATIONAL EDUCATIONVOCATIONAL SKILLSVOUCHERSWAGE BILLWAGE PREMIUMWAGE PREMIUMSYOUTHYOUTH UNEMPLOYMENTYOUTH UNEMPLOYMENT RATESWorld Bank10.1596/978-0-8213-8489-3
