Presentación del curso
The course, which is part of the Diploma of Advanced Studies on Skills Development, jointly organized by the ITCILO and the Swiss Federal University of Vocational Education and Training, and in particular its CAS on Governance of Skills Development Systems, presents a systemic approach to the process of elaborating public policies for skills development in relation to efforts to create decent jobs. This course aims to facilitate the emergence of policies based on social dialogue which anticipate and respond to labour market needs, taking into account the specificities of each context.
