Among the millions of asylum seekers who recently arrived in OECD countries, the majority are young people who may be able to take advantage of vocational education and training(VET) opportunities to help them enter skilled employment. This report provides advice to governments and other stakeholders who are seeking to use VET to promote integration,in particular for young humanitarian migrants. While the study draws particularly on policy and practice observed in Germany, Italy, Sweden and Switzerland, it also highlights other international practices. The report focuses on the main channels through which migrants succeed in VET. It is essential that migrants are fully informed about the opportunities VET provision offers and that they have access to high quality preparatory programmes enabling access to upper-secondary VET. Once in such provision, targeted support should help them to complete VET programmes successfully. OECD countries are putting in place innovative measures to achieve better outcomes for both migrants and for economies as a whole. Ultimately this report argues that VET systems can become stronger, more flexible and more inclusive, when working better for all students,including those with diverse and vulnerable backgrounds.

The objective of the presentation is to share good practices in promoting and supporting entrepreneurship within higher education. It will also elaborate on actions which were taken by Polish Ministry of Science and Higher Education to examine the progress of Polish higher education institutions (HEIs) towards becoming “entrepreneurial HEIs”, improving efficiency of transition from education to the labor market, increasing the usefulness of competences acquired by university graduates for the labor market, improving access to information about the graduates’ career paths in the labor market. Poland has been implementing the new graduate tracking system in order to get reliable and comparable data on graduates’ employment outcomes. It will be based on administrative data: matching database of graduates with anonymized data from the Social Insurance Institution focuses on transversal skills. Since 2014 Poland has been implementing the competency development programme which will support the training sessions and workshops aimed at increasing the skills and competences most relevant to the labour market, including entrepreneurship, but also interpersonal skills, including efficient use of the Polish language (literacy skills), formulating opinions, teamwork, negotiation techniques, additional courses delivered jointly with employers, career guidance. In October 2014 the Ministry and the National Centre of Research and Development announced the new competition, supported by the European Social Fund, for projects supporting career offices and career guidance in particular. Presentation will introduce the most important achievements of the objectives referred to the Frames of European cooperation on education and training.

Higher Education in Norway - Labour Market Relevance and OutcomesEduSkills OECD
The higher education system in Norway generally produces graduates with good skills and labour market outcomes. This success can be largely attributed to Norway’s robust and inclusive labour market and recent higher education reforms to improve quality. However, some Norwegian students have poor labour market outcomes and past success is no guarantee of future success, especially as the Norwegian economy upskills and diversifies. This report provides advice and recommendations to improve the labour market relevance and the outcomes of higher education in Norway. The analysis finds that there is an opportunity to expand work-based learning opportunities, improve career guidance, and do a better job of using innovative learning and teaching practices to improve labour market relevance across the system. The report concludes that Norwegian policy makers have a larger role to play in steering the system. Policy makers can set the conditions for greater labour market relevance by strengthening the mechanism for collaboration between higher education institutions and employers, ensuring better coordination and use of labour market information, and redoubling efforts to support quality learning and teaching. This report was developed as part of the OECD Enhancing Higher Education System Performance project.

Mr Lempinen writes about skills competition and Russia joining them.
Skills competitions can be used as a tool to develop vocational education and training, if competitions are connected to everyday teaching and other activities of VET colleges. This will take years to achieve as example from Finland has showed, but in the end efforts will be rewarded.
Russian Federation has joined the World Skills International, a non profit organisation to promote worldwide awareness of the contribution that skills and high standards of competence make to the achievement of economic success and individual fulfilment.

Finland, a democratic welfare state and the northernmost member of the European Union is an example of a nation that has been able to transform its traditional economy into a modern knowledge economy within relatively short period of time. Education has played important
role in this process. This chapter argues that system-wide excellence in student learning is attainable at reasonable cost, using education policies differing from conventional marketoriented reform strategies prevalent in many other countries. Unlike many other education
systems, test-based accountability and externally determined learning standards have not been part of Finnish education policies. Relying on data from international student assessments, indicators and earlier policy studies, this chapter describes how steady improvement in
student learning has been attained through Finnish education policies based on equity, flexibility, creativity, teacher professionalism, and mutual trust. The conclusion is that educational reform in Finland has been built upon ideas of good leadership that place an emphasis on teaching and learning, encouraging schools to craft optimal learningenvironments and implement educational content that best helps their students reach the general goals of schooling, and professional leadership of schools.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

Evaluation of education
In Finland education is evaluated locally, regionallyand nationally.Finland also takes part in international
reviews.
In Finland school inspections were abolished in the early 1990s.The ideologyis to steer through information,
supportand funding.The activities of education providers are guided by objectives laid down in legislation as well
as the national core curricula and qualification requirements.The sys tem relies on the proficiency of teachers and
other personnel.
There is strong focus on both self-evaluation ofschools and education providers and national evaluations of
learning outcomes.National evaluations oflearning outcomes are done regularly,so that there is a testevery
year either in mother tongue and literature or mathematics.Other subjects are evaluated according to the
evaluation plan of the Ministry of Education and Culture.Not only academic subjects are evaluated but also
subjects such as arts and crafts and cross-curricular themes.
From the schools’ perspective,the evaluations are not regular as they are sample-based.The education
providers receive their own results to be used for developmentpurposes.
The main aim ofthe national evaluations oflearning outcomes is to follow atnational level how well the
objectives have been reached as setin the core curricula and qualification requirements.Consequently,the
results are notused for ranking the schools.
In higher education the polytechnics and universities are responsible for the evaluation of their own operations
and outcomes.In this they also receive supportfrom the Higher Education Evaluation Council.
Evaluation plan and evaluation bodies
The Finnish Ministry of Education and Culture is preparing an evaluation plan for third-party evaluations and
evaluations carried outto monitor learning outcomes.
The plan is being drawn up in cooperation with the Finnish Education Evaluation Council,the Finnish Higher
Education Evaluation Council and the National Board of Education or with the other evaluation organisations (eg.
around universities) that
are currently active in Finland.
From 2014 evaluation activity concerning education will be concentrated into a single Education Evalu ation
Centre.

Education and Training Monitor: Key indicators and benchmarks
Back
webnews
05-11-2013
The annual Education and Training Monitor examines the evolution of Europe’s education and training
systems. It illustrates the evolution of education and training systems across Europe, with a particular
focus on the country-specific recommendations adopted in the field of education and training.
These country-specific recommendations,proposed bythe
Commission and adopted bythe Council,are based on an
assessmentofeach Member State's key challenges and aim at
offering tailor-made guidance.Many of these recommendations call
on to combatearly school leaving,increase tertiary attainment,
improve school or vocational education and training system by
making their outcomes more relevantfor the labour market,and
secure the necessaryfunding for investments in education.
According to the Education and Training Monitor Finland has been
hence able to maintain its education budgetthroughoutthe financial
crisis,and its public expenditure on education has remained above
the EU average, despite a generallydifficult economic context.
The public expenditure on education remained stable in Finland
during the period 2008-2011,from 5.9% of GDP in 2008 to 6.4 % of
GDP in 2011,and remains significantlyhigher than the EU general
average of 5.3% in 2011.
Main challenges and recommendations
In general Finland has been able to maintain its high international position,particularlyon basic skills.
In the context of an ageing population,the employabilityof older workers and the need to delay their exit from the
labour marketon the one hand,and the level of youth unemploymentand a lack of relevant skills among young
job seekers on the other, are growing sources ofconcern for Finland,particularlyyoung people not in
employment,education and /or training (NEETs, ca. 40.000 persons).A major initiative in this area is the “Social
Guarantee for Young People: education,work and tailored services”.
Finally, Finland will have to face in the future the issue ofincreasing the efficiency of its public spending on
education,in particular in the tertiary sector.
Tackling early school leaving and drop-out
Finland performs better than the EU average for the early school-leaving rate.In Finland it was 8.9 % vs. an EU
average of 12.8% in 2012. However, it tends to be significantlyhigher among migrants,with an estimate of14.9%
in 2012.The overall rate of ESL has remained fairlystable for the lastdecade.For the period 2011 -12 the early
school-leaving rate has decreased by0.9 pp.
Accompanied by 28 individual country
reports and an online visualisation tool,
The Education and Training Monitor 2013
provides a w ealth of data to facilitate
evidence-based policy making across
Europe.
8. Compared with the nation as a whole,migrantyouths in Finland are more exposed to early school leaving.The
situation is especiallychallenging for those young people who have arrived in Finland in the final stages ofthe
Finnish programme of compulsoryeducation.Thus language training for immigrants is to be increased at
secondaryand upper-secondarylevel as well as adulteducation centres,allowing for the improvementoftheir
study prospects and their language skills.
As part of the enhanced Youth Guarantee,Finland has increased the number ofavailable study places in VET by
1.700. These studyplaces were created particularly in geographical areas where there previouslywas relatively
few study places available compared with the relevantage group.The Youth Guarantee package consists of
various elements:a guarantee ofemployment,education or training,as well as a young adults’ skills programme,
a youth ‘workshop’,and outreach youth work.
The Governmentbudgetproposal includes 60 million EUR destined for local authorities for the employment,
education and training guarantee in 2013.The young adults'skills programme will be implemented in 2013 -2016,
with a budgetof 27 million EUR in 2013 and 52 million EUR in the years 2014-2016.In this context opportunities
to achieve a vocational qualification or a part of it will be provided for those 20-29 year olds who only have
achieved the comprehensive school leaving certificate.As regards the youth workshop and outreach youth work
the funding for the period 2013-2015 is setto be of 19.5 million EUR,and 11.5 million EUR in 2016.
Finland also decided to improve studentguidance during and after the end of compulsoryeducation.The aim is
give local authorities the legal responsibilityto provide young people,who have ended compulsoryeducation
withouta qualification,with professional career counselling and guidance.
The challenge of doing more with less
According to the report in the future Finland will have to address the issue ofthe efficiency of public spending in
higher education,given one of the longesttimes to degree in all of the OECD countries,as well as the relative
importance ofexpenditure in the tertiary sector.
Finland is performing quite well as regards the tertiary attainmentrate, with 45.8% (EU wide definition) as against
an EU average of 35.7% in 2012.The rate for foreign born persons remains lower than for natives, with 33% vs.
47% in 2012.
The supplyof upper secondaryeducation is strong and due to high completion rates,tertiary attainmentis high
as well.Moreover, investmentis very high and still increasing.Employmentadvantage is,interestingly,notso
strong.So it’s not per se a direct labour marketincentive that makes people continue into higher education.
The internationalisation and attractiveness for overseas students ofthe Finnish tertiary sector remain a challenge
and will have to be further developed in the future.
Investing in skills and qualifications
Public expenditure on education (COFOG data) remained stable in Finland during the period 2008-2011,from
5.9% of GDP in 2008 to 6.4 % of GDP in 2011,and remains significantlyhigher than the EU general average of
5.3% in 2011.
Finland has been hence able to maintain its education budgetthroughoutthe financial crisis,and its public
expenditure on education has remained above the EU average, despite a generally difficulteconomic context.

10. Education and training
policies based on evidence
What is it about?
A strong evidence-base and solid analyses are key elements for informed policy discussions and policy developments in education and training.
The Directorate General for Education and Culture (DG EAC) draws on a range of sources, including key benchmarks and indicators, studies,
international surveys, and secondary analyses, to ensure that this approach is properly included in the implementation of the strategic framework.
European benchmarks target a level to be achieved by 2020 in the fields of:
early school leaving,
higher education completion,
basic skills,
early childhood education,
lifelong learning,
transition to the labour market,
mobility between countries.
Core indicators are also used to monitor progress in a number of additional priority areas currently not covered by benchmarks, such as languages
, adults’ skills, teachers, investment in education and training, ICT in education, entrepreneurship in education and VET.
What is the Commission doing?
The annual Education and Training Monitor sets out the progress on the ET 2020 benchmarks and core indicators, including the Europe 2020
headline target on education and training. It illustrates the evolution of education and training systems across Europe. It is accompanied by 28
individual country reports and an online visualisation tool.
To facilitate policy dialogue with Member States on new and emerging issues, DG EAC also conducts studies and draws on analyses, forecasts, and
system-level information from other organisations, agencies, and Commission services.
DG EAC also works with EURYDICE, Cedefop, and the Joint Research Centre to improve its knowledge of education and training systems.
What has been done so far?
An Education and Skills Cooperation Arrangement was signed between DG EAC and Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development ,
and international surveys were identified as one of the main areas of common interest. In 2013 DG EAC and the OECD jointly published the results
of two skills assessments, the Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA) and the Survey of Adult Skills (PIAAC).
Cooperation with the OECD also covers skills strategies, entrepreneurial institutions and efficiency of schools systems.
What are the next steps?
Publication of the 2014 Monitor on Education and Training (2015)
Launch of the Teaching and Learning International Survey (TALIS)
Joint implementation of OECD projects on the efficiency of school systems and national skills strategies.
11. Strategic framework –
Education & Training 2020
What is the EU's role in education & training?
Each EU country is responsible for its own education and training systems, so EU policy is designed to support national action and help address
common challenges, such as ageing societies, skills deficits in the workforce, and global competition.
The EU offers a forum for exchange of best practices, gathering and dissemination of information and statistics, as well as advice and support for
policy reforms. Funding is also available for activities that promote learning and education at all levels and for all age groups.
Through the strategic framework for education and training, member states have identified four common objectives to address these challenges by
2020:
Making lifelong learning and mobility a reality;
Improving the quality and efficiency of education and training;
Promoting equity, social cohesion, and active citizenship;
Enhancing creativity and innovation, including entrepreneurship, at all levels of education and training.
What has been done so far?
The following EU benchmarks for 2020 have been set for education:
At least 95% of children (from 4 to compulsory school age) should participate in early childhood education;
fewer than 15% of 15-year-olds should be under-skilled in reading, mathematics and science;
fewer than 10% of young people should drop out of education and training;
at least 40% of people aged 30-34 should have completed some form of higher education;
at least 15% of adults should participate in lifelong learning;
at least 20% of higher education graduates and 6% of 18-34 year-olds with an initial vocational qualification should have spent some
time studying or training abroad;
the share of employed graduates (20-34 year-olds having successfully completed upper secondary or tertiary education) having left
education 1-3 years ago should be at least 82%.
Progress on these benchmarks is assessed in each Member state through a yearly country analysis, with the EU also providing recommendations

Education and Training
Monitor
What is it?
The Education and Training Monitor is an instrument to foster and encourage evidence-based policy making. It is an annual report that illustrates, in a
succinct document, the evolution of education and training systems across Europe.
It takes into account a variety of benchmarks and indicators, as well as recent studies and policy developments.
Why is it needed?
In 2012 the strategic framework for European cooperation in education and training, Education and Training 2020 (ET 2020) was redesigned to bring
it in line with the EU strategy for growth and jobs .
The Monitor contributes to the analytical basis for the European Semester and provides input to national debates.
What has been done so far?
To date, two editions of the Monitor have been published. The latest report (1.19 Mb) , published in October 2013, dealt with:
Investing in skills and qualifications (344 kB)
Tackling early school leaving and increasing the quality of education (372 kB)
Emphasising effectiveness and quality in the modernisation of higher education (379 kB)
Facilitating the transition from education to work through vocational education and training (292 kB)
Upgrading skills through lifelong learning (306 kB)
The report also included a summary of key findings (147 kB) .
The latest Education and Training Monitor is accompanied by 28 country reports (11.66 Mb) , as well as a visualisation tool to
evaluate the performance and progress of the Member States in relation to the ET2020 targets.
The visualisation tool covers comparable performance data on:
Early leavers from education and training
Tertiary education attainment
Early childhood education and care
Low achievement in reading , maths , and science

15. Abstract
The Ministry of Education and Culture set up a working group on 8 March 2013 to formulate a proposal on
strengthening the qualityperspective of the financial items for research and education within the funding model
for universities,so thatthe changes can be implemented when allocating basic funding for universities as
specified in section 49(3) ofthe Universities Act (558/2009) in 2015.
To supportthe working group in developing the quality perspective in the financial contribution for education,a
working group was established by UNIFI, whose task was to prepare mechanisms and plan the collection of
studentfeedback.Plans for developing the financial contribution for research were carried out with the assistance
of the Federation of Learned Societies in Finland (TVS), who produced a rating system for publications
(publication forum),and statistical analyses produced byexperts of the Ministry of Education and Culture and of
the TVS.
To enhance the quality perspective in the section for education,the working group proposes thatfactors in the
financial item for studentfeedback included in the funding model for universities as of2015. From then onwards,
3% of state funding for universities would be based on studentfeedback from studentsurveys.The proposed
number ofquestions in the surveys is 13.
It is proposed thatthe weightof the financial item related to shorter graduation periods for those who have
completed atleast55 study points per academic year be raised by 1 percentage point,in line with the
Government’s structural policyprogramme,so thatthe contribution would amountto 12% of state funding for
universities as of2015.
It is proposed thatthe percentages ofthe financial items pending confirmation be deducted from financial items
for Bachelor’s and Master’s degree resources,so that6% of overall state funding for universities would be
allocated on the basis ofthe number ofBachelor’s degrees (previously9%) and 14% on the basis ofMaster’s
degrees (previously15%).
To strengthen the quality perspective in the research section offunding,the working group proposes thatthe
publications rating system produced bythe TVS be adopted as of 2015. It is proposed thatThe financial item of
imputed publications (13%),which previouslywas divided into international refereed publications (9%) and other
scientific publications (4%), be treated as a single item.
The publication ratings system devised bythe publication forum would be used as a rating in the computation of
funding so that the quality perspective would be strengthened over a transitional period of2015 -2016 and would
be even more pronounced as of2017.During the transitional period the rating of publications would be executed
so that in Level 0 the coefficient for peer reviewed scientific articles and publications would be 1,in Level 1 it
would be 1.5 and in Levels 2 and 3 it would be 3.
To bolster the social impactofpublications,non-peer reviewed scientific papers,books and publications,
publications designed for professional groups and publications intended for the general public would be rated
using a coefficient of 0.1 in the calculation offunding,regardless oftheir Level in the publication forum.
