Think Global, Act Sectoral

INSSO’s launch publication Think Global, Act Sectoral explores the underpinning themes that drive successful sector-based systems. The international contributors are all leaders of their field, writing about the unique aspects of their countries sectoral approach.

Education and training systems across the industrialised world are coming under increasing pressure. Industrial sectors are becoming ‘knowledge intensive’ as global forces increasingly shape international trade patterns and supply chains. We are now entering the era of the ‘global skills race’. The policy response in many countries has been to establish industry-led sector skills organisations.

 

Labour Market Intelligence

The publication Labour Market Intelligence explains how INSSO member countries collect, analyse and disseminate sectoral labour market information to influence education providers, reform qualifications, as well as anticipate future industry skills needs.  Andrew Cardozo, executive director at the Alliance of Sector Councils in Ottawa, edited the book. This version is available in both English and French.

 
 

Tom Bewick, Chairman, INSSO

Globalisation is placing new demands on education and training systems worldwide. The sector-based approach is uniquely bridging that gap, helping industry partners and educators, ultimately access more employable people who are better skilled. INSSO exists to identify and share international best practice through a sectoral approach.
