The OECD Skills Outlook 2015 shows how improving the employability of youth requires a comprehensive approach. While education, social, and labour market policies have key roles to play, co-ordination between public policies and the private sector is also crucial. The publication, which builds on the results of the 2012 Survey of Adult Skills presented in the first edition of the Skills Outlook, also presents examples of successful policies in selected countries.
Results Based Monitoring and Evaluation
RBME is a tool for public sector management that can help track progress and demonstrate the impact of projects and policies. It focuses on outcomes and impacts rather than just inputs and outputs. Governments are increasingly expected to show results and address questions like whether policies are achieving desired outcomes. RBME involves setting targets and monitoring indicators over time to evaluate success, identify problems, and make corrections. Both monitoring and evaluation are needed to better manage initiatives and steer them toward goals.
