The importance of entrepreneurial role models in shaping the entrepreneurial ...
This document summarizes a research project on the role that family patterns play in economics students' decisions to pursue entrepreneurial careers. The research surveyed 158 economics students about their career interests and parents' occupations. It found that students from families with entrepreneurial backgrounds were more likely to have strong entrepreneurial orientations. The lack of successful entrepreneurial role models and education in Romania contributes to weaker entrepreneurial orientations for students without entrepreneurial family experience. Mentorship programs were discussed as an important way to strengthen Romania's entrepreneurial culture and environment.

1. The document discusses the shift from qualification models to competency models in workforce management. Qualification models defined jobs based on diplomas and wages, while competency models evaluate individual skills and abilities.
2. This shift was driven by increases in competition, worker responsibilities, and demands for new efficiency standards. It has led companies to manage workers based on individual competencies rather than job qualifications.
3. Both individual workers and unions face challenges with competency-based models, including more individualized career management, risks of competencies being used only for economic adjustment, and the destabilization of collective bargaining power. Efforts to reestablish collective references and standards have proven difficult.

Technology for Employability
The role of UK higher education (HE), further education (FE) and skills sectors in developing student employability is clear. Technology can be an enabler to the development and communication of employability skills, but are organisations and employers making best use of it?
This presentation aims to share and discuss the emerging themes and ideas being generated through our student employability project, which explores how technology can best support students to develop and communicate the skills that are needed for the workplace.
The presentation informs participants of what has been learnt so far and engage them in discussions. We will:
Share emergent themes including issues and opportunities from the study
Share, discuss and build on ideas for what organisations, programme teams and we can do to enhance student employability and the use of technology.
Presenters:
Lisa Gray, senior co-design manager, Jisc
Peter Chatterton, independent consultant, higher education
Geoff Rebbeck, independent consultant, further education and skills
Who will find this useful?
The presentation will be of interest to anyone across HE, FE and skills with an interest in how students develop and communicate employability skills, primarily:
Senior managers with responsibility for employer responsiveness and employer engagement
Academic/teaching staff with an interest in employability
Technology-enhanced learning and academic enhancement roles
Employability leads
Staff with responsibility for personal development planning (PDP)

This document outlines Hungary's strategy for reforming its tertiary education system to better meet the needs of the economy and society. It discusses challenges such as low public funding and the transition from school to work. The strategy aims to improve quality, performance, and specialization through measures like profiling institutions, restructuring the network, boosting innovation/dual education, strengthening research, and fostering industry collaboration. It also seeks to develop effective governance models and new business models to diversify funding beyond direct state support.
Working in partnership to support student employability
This document summarizes a symposium on using technology to support student employability. It discusses exploring how technology can help students develop digital skills to communicate with employers, considering opportunities for involving employers in partnerships with students and staff, and showcasing current practices. Case studies are presented from the University of Southampton and Activate Learning on their work to enhance student employability through partnerships and use of technology. Resources from Jisc are also summarized, including research, guidance, and case studies on adopting a connected curriculum approach and using technology across five dimensions: authentic learning, self-directed learning, employer engagement, skills development, and digital literacy.

This document discusses collaboration between universities and employers to develop higher level skills. It finds that collaboration is important because the demand for higher level skills is increasing but relevant skills must match employer needs. Universities and employers can create alternative pathways to higher skills through collaboration. The document explores why universities and employers collaborate and the benefits of collaboration. It also examines how to develop successful collaboration and provides case studies of existing collaborations between universities and employers.
Apprenticeship Levy v2.sass
The Apprenticeship Levy, introduced in 2017, requires UK employers with annual payrolls over £3 million to pay 0.5% of their payroll towards apprenticeship funding. It aims to increase apprenticeship quantity and quality to 3 million by 2020. Employers receive £15,000 allowance and can access funding through an online portal. The levy may impact HRM by reducing hiring costs through apprenticeships, creating diverse workforces, and complementing on- and off-the-job learning, though some industries struggle with requirements.
Creativity and entrepreneurship education e learning
Career guidance in schools aims to develop students' creativity and entrepreneurial skills. It encourages innovative teaching approaches that develop key competencies and foster creative thinking. These skills are important for students' lifelong learning and career management as the labor market demands creative and adaptable employees. Schools should provide environments where students can explore ideas freely and learn differently. Practice firms in schools give students practical work experience in simulated business environments to prepare them for future careers.

Skills are important for employability, social mobility, and personal development. As labor markets and skills needs evolve rapidly, workers will need to continually acquire new skills and competencies to adapt. There is also a risk that some workers will be left behind without measures to ensure lifelong learning for all. It is critical that education and training systems help both workers and the unemployed maintain and develop skills to take advantage of new opportunities and fill available jobs.
Employability and Higher Education. How to Match Students’ expectations ?
Employability and Higher Education. How to Match Students’ expectations ?UNIMED - Mediterranean Universities Union
The document discusses employability as a growing challenge in higher education. It notes that students increasingly view university as a way to find a job and look for skills to make them employable. Universities must provide technical, professional, and soft skills to help students' professional integration. New rankings focus on employability, and accreditation agencies include employability criteria. The University of Holy Spirit Kaslik (USEK) prepares students for employment through theoretical and practical courses, career services, international opportunities, and partnerships like the OIPULES Tempus and RESeaU projects.The Applied Model - A new model for a new era of Graduate Education
There is a fierce global debate about the value and future of universities.
While there is a myriad of opinions arguing for how universities should change. Few address the issue from the perspective of a student and fewer still seek to design solutions which optimise for student outcomes.
Taking a “student first” perspective, this deck provides a summary of a comprehensive white paper on the subject which can be found here: https://www.locke.com.au/applied-model/

1. There is a large gap between the number of graduates coming out of Indian universities and the number that are employable, with estimates that only 25% of engineering and 10% of general graduates have the necessary skills.
2. This skills gap is caused by academics that focus only on theoretical knowledge and a lack of interaction between industry, government, and academia to develop curricula tailored to industry needs.
3. Improving employability will require bringing employers into the course design process, modifying courses to match industry needs, and building links between educational institutions and local employers through activities like guest lectures, internships, and research collaborations.

This document outlines 7 key learnings from the Accelerating Change for Social Inclusion project aimed at improving social innovation processes:
1) Adapting existing innovations is more efficient than designing new responses from scratch.
2) Local ecosystems need to be activated to boost innovation capacity by involving stakeholders from the beginning to overcome barriers.
3) Expectations need clear definition and roles through continuous engagement of key actors from the start.
4) Standardized information on innovations helps evaluate potential impact and encourages systematizing knowledge for implementation.
5) Social innovation takes long-term commitment due to need for alignment and capacity building among actors.
6) Knowledge systematization and exchange strengthen social innovation ecosystems.

Economic trends from a business point of view (May 2024)Інститут економічних досліджень та політичних консультацій
“Amidst Tempered Optimism” Main economic trends in May 2024 based on the results of the New Monthly Enterprises Survey, #NRES
On 12 June 2024 the Institute for Economic Research and Policy Consulting (IER) held an online event “Economic Trends from a Business Perspective (May 2024)”.
During the event, the results of the 25-th monthly survey of business executives “Ukrainian Business during the war”, which was conducted in May 2024, were presented.
The field stage of the 25-th wave lasted from May 20 to May 31, 2024. In May, 532 companies were surveyed.
The enterprise managers compared the work results in May 2024 with April, assessed the indicators at the time of the survey (May 2024), and gave forecasts for the next two, three, or six months, depending on the question. In certain issues (where indicated), the work results were compared with the pre-war period (before February 24, 2022).
✅ More survey results in the presentation.

【业务选择办理准则】
一、工作未确定，回国需先给父母、亲戚朋友看下文凭的情况，办理一份就读学校的毕业证【微信bwp0011】文凭即可
二、回国进私企、外企、自己做生意的情况，这些单位是不查询毕业证真伪的，而且国内没有渠道去查询国外文凭的真假，也不需要提供真实教育部认证。鉴于此，办理一份毕业证【微信bwp0011】即可
三、进国企，银行，事业单位，考公务员等等，这些单位是必需要提供真实教育部认证的，办理教育部认证所需资料众多且烦琐，所有材料您都必须提供原件，我们凭借丰富的经验，快捷的绿色通道帮您快速整合材料，让您少走弯路。

- 1. UpSocial - Casp 43 08010 Barcelona – T +34 934 123 449 – www.upsocial.org - @UpSocialBCN Challenge Brief How to better connect young people and the unemployed with quality job opportunities? Deadline for submission of proven innovations: 10/05/2015 Complete the online form at www.upsocial.org Presentation Concerns about unemployment and low quality employment are growing as the problem becomes chronic, suggested by the high rates of unemployment and underemployment. Therefore, this challenge is focused on identifying proven innovations that improve connections between supply and demand for employment, especially for young people with a medium to high level of studies (secondary school, technical college or university) without forgetting other age groups. Definition of quality employment § Quality employment is “one that gives the worker certain skills – the ability and flexibility to perform a set of tasks over which they have personal control, collaborating with their colleagues to develop teamwork and, over this collaboration, to choose and pursue a number of objectives and demand an income in exchange for their work that allows them access to greater consumption capacity." F. Green, Princeton University (2006) § Quality employment must consider "the objective characteristics relating to employment, both in relation to the workplace and to specific elements of the work; the worker characteristics and their contribution regarding the work; the fit between the worker characteristics and the requirements of job; and the subjective evaluation of this set of characteristics by the individual worker." European Commission (2001) Project areas In particular, this challenge seeks to identify initiatives operating in the following areas: § Brokerage: information, guidance, support and mentoring. § Employability: second chance to do secondary school or professional training, dual training, work placements in an environment rich in SMEs. § Promotion of technological and scientific vocations, where there is the highest present and future offer of skilled employment. § Training and formal, informal and non-formal education, tailored to the needs of companies. § Promotion of entrepreneurship: ecosystem, incubation, support, training, funding, etc.
