from
01:30 AM

The ILO finds that robust training policies and systems are ground in the characteristics and institutions of each country. Nevertheless, a number of common building blocks can be identified. A good skills development system will be able to: anticipate skills needs; engage employers and workers in training, including the specific sectors; maintenance of quality and relevance of training; making training accessible to all sections of society; ensure viable and equitable financing mechanisms; and continuously evaluate the economic and social outcomes of training. Labour market information consists of information on the size and composition of labour market and includes information pertaining to the two sides of the labour market, demand and supply, and how they interact with each other. LMI uses may range from assessing employment problems, fixing employment targets and identifying employment intensive technologies and investments, to assessing the relevance of existing courses and identification of new courses for educational development including identification of implementation needs, identification of eligible beneficiaries, etc. LMI is very important in anticipating skills damnd in the labour market. A number of methods are used to forecast future skills needs. These include forecasting occupational and skills profiles at various levels of disaggregation; social dialogue; labour market information system (LMIS); and analysis of the performance of training institutions, including tracer studies.
