2. A new focus on skills
G20
EU OECD ILO
World Bank
Skills
are today seen
(together with innovation) Various
countries
as the most important
engine of growth and CONTEXT
competitiveness
3. Four questions to be
asked about skills
• What skills are needed?
• How to value the
demand side?
• How to produce the skills?
• How to connect the two worlds?
5. Thank you for your
attention!
And success to
InnoOmnia!
6. Intangible capital and
productivity
„Intangible capital explains about a quarter of
labour-productivity growth in the US and
larger countries of the EU”
• It explains more than 40% of market value of
companies (data from more than 600
companies)
• Investment in intangible capital is now higher
than investment in tangible capital in some
developed countries

8. Skills are one of largest
part of intangible goods
Skills are the simplest, best, most
direct way to boost productivity…
skills investment is the quickest way to
maintain productivity…
skills investment is the only way to
maintain productivity.

(Quoted by Ken Mayhew, SKOPE)
11. All forms of skills are important
High
performance
workplaces,
innovative
learning
organisations
12. A balanced view on the supply
and the demand side
• The recent EU and OECD skills
strategies put a particularly strong
stress on the demand side and the
micro (workplace) level
– Skills utilisation is seen as much important as skills
production
– Shoft from matching demand towards creating high
equilibrium
13. From matching to good
equilibrium

14. The trap of the low skills
equilibrium
„A low skills equilibrium is a situation where
an economy becomes trapped in a vicious
circle of low value added, low skills and
low wages.”

15. The high skills
equilibrium
A dynamic „skills ecosystem” in
which the producers and the
users of skills interact so that
– increasing demand for higher level skills generates
higher level supply
– the presence of high level skills generates higher
demands
16. Ways to produce skills
Learning before adult life
School based IVET Dual IVET
Learning Learning in
in school workplace
Company
Integrated regional training centres
VET centres and leaning
while working
Learning during adult life
PSDC Malaysia
17. The implications of
growing stress on the
demand side and on
workplace learning
• Innovative workplaces (private and public)
must be integrated into training centres
• Training centres must be
open to adults and lifelong learning
18. Bridges and traffic
between the worlds
of education and work
• National Qualifications Frameworks bringing all
subsystems of education into a common
framework
• Work-based elements included into general
education and general competences developed also
in work-based learning
• Dynamic, intensive interaction - the pleasure of
discovering each other
