Reviews India's and other countries' higher education systems and suggests seven policy actions that the Indian national government and other stakeholders can take to improve higher education by linking funding to quality.
Canadian Vocational Association / Association canadienne de la formation professionnelle's insight:
India's higher education system faces challenges from underprepared faculty, unwieldy governance, and other obstacles to innovation and improvement. Instituting policies that link funding to quality could hold schools accountable for their performance, encourage greater innovation, and further the nation's education goals.

This study compares eligibility for student financial aid by examining the amount of funds (both repayable and non-repayable) that a student would be eligible to receive in each province, based on their income group (low-, middle- and high-income). Individual provinces have also demonstrated priorities such as debt reduction strategies, universal grants, and student independence from parental support, to name a few. The complexity of student aid eligibility in each province and territory is ranked based on the number of steps and outcomes possible for a simple, undergraduate application. - See more at: https://www.policyalternatives.ca/publications/reports/it%E2%80%98s-complicated#sthash.hIOGTeVm.dpuf

Canadian businesses had 200,000 vacancies in December, the lowest number since March 2011, when Statistics Canada began collecting job vacancy numbers.
Canadian Vocational Association / Association canadienne de la formation professionnelle's insight:
Canadian businesses had just under 200,000 vacancies in December 2013, the lowest number since March 2011. The question of whether or not there is a labour shortage depends on where in Canada you're trying to find a job. The ratio of unemployed people to vacant jobs worsened in every province in December, but the absolute numbers were dramatically different from one province to another.

One of the main goals of internationalised higher education is to provide the most relevant education to students, who will be the citizens, entrepreneurs and scientists of tomorrow. Internationalisation is not an end in itself, but a driver for change and improvement – it should help generate the skills required in the 21st century, spur on innovation and create alternatives while, ultimately, fostering job creation. Yet the current economic climate calls for a closer examination of the tangible benefits of internationalisation for the economies and societies of, and beyond, the OECD.

This paper, commissioned by Teach First, provides evidence on the benefits of career development activities for children in the primary phase, and the range of teacher roles when delivering it. In doing so the research attempts to map what primary schools are doing to tackle the influence of socio-economic issues that affect children’s future transition to secondary school and beyond, how they approach career-related learning and how we can get a step closer to ensure best practice in primary career provision.

Canadian Vocational Association / Association canadienne de la formation professionnelle's insight:
Since local communities that are recovering fastest from the crisis are those having a labour force that is adaptable to external trends and shocks, local and regional authorities (LRAs) can play a crucial role by addressing the less conventional, more modern skills as an important way to increase flexibility and adaptability of the labour force. These skills include basic skills, multilingualism and digital literacy, while the development of entrepreneurship becomes a key component for welfare as it may create occupation for the unemployed and new businesses. By the same token, media literacy is necessary for creating new jobs in the media industry and for school education to improve, in turn, the level of media literacy in society.

This study aimed at assessing skills deficits in developing country contexts on the basis of firm data from World Bank Enterprise Surveys. A precise definition of skills deficit was used – employers’ perceptions of inadequate workforce a educational levels as a relative and absolute constraint to firm growth and performance - to assess the relevance of skills deficits in a set of 25 low- and middle-income countries. Although limited to the formal sector and to employer perceptions, the study nonetheless highlights a number of patterns concerning skills deficits in the development world of relevance for policy.

The aim is to identify existing policies and programmes that promote learning about entrepreneurship within vocational training systems. Entrepreneurship is meant as a combination of mindsets and skills, therefore programmes and courses will be considered that address both aspects. The project focuses on the systems of formal education and training, and on teaching entrepreneurship to young people.

Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) is a potentially valuable tool for India to bring millions of people back into training and education and set the country on a higher skills trajectory. However, implementing RPL is complex and challenging. In India, forward-thinking organizations are running their own pilot RPL initiatives to lay the groundwork for the introduction of the concept on a wider scale.
