Scope

Does the option affect the access of workers or job-seekers to vocational or continuous training?[1]

Definition

This question focuses on the training of workers, i.e. efforts to improve the professional level of workers once they have entered the labour market. Training can be either carried out at the work-place or at specialised institutions providing training services. Part of these activities are institutionalised and imply the provision of specific courses with either methodological or technical content. Some training also occur in the form of learning by doing, learining by interacting or learning on the job. Aspects to be considered in order to assess the likely effect of policies on this impact area include: the financial and organisational features involved in the provision of institutionalised training (private and public expenditures needed to supply specific courses at the work place and at specialised institutions, quali-quantitative characteristics of supplied services); the organisational issues involved in non-institutionalised learning processes (occurring on the job both within firms and through the interactions of workers with external parties); the attainment of workers of new knowledge and skills by means of training activities of all kinds.
