1. Introducion
The overall aim of the Government’s national training strategy is to
help secure a skilled and productive workforce.
The role of Government is:
to provide leadership and strategic direction,
to develop and promote a first class education and training system,
including the development of a comprehensive national system of vocational
qualifications,
and to help those people who are unemployed and at a disadvantage in the
jobs marked to get back to work and develop their abilities to the
full.
The Training and Enterprise Councils (TECs) in England and Wales and the
Local Enterprise Companies (LECs) in Scotland manage the Government’s
training programs for young people. Industry Training Organisations (ITOs) are
another important element of the national framework. They monitor the future
develop and promote occupational standards and vocational qualifications.
Some strategic priorities for the national framework:
Employers must invest more effectively in the skills their businesses
need;
young people must have the motivation to achieve their full potential and
skills the economy needs;
the providers of education and training must offer high quality and
flexible provising which meets the need of individuals and employers;
people who are unemployed and those at a disadvantage in the jobs market
must be helped to get back to work and to develop their abilities to the
full.
There are eight National Education and Training Targets in all. Four cover
„Foundation Learning“ which means that you can learn like in school
or university, and the other four targets are about „Lifetime
Learning“ which means that you can take part in training in the afternoon.
2. The National Training
Framework
2.1 Government organisations
The Employment Department is organised into four directorates.
1. Training and Enterprise Directorate (TEED)
It is responsible for work on training, enterprise and education policy. An
other organisation called National Training Task Force (NTTF) was established to
help TEED. The main assignment of the NTTF is to research into training,
enterprise and vocational development, research priorities and sponsoring
seminars on emerging issues and trends.
2. The Industrial Relations and International Directorate
(IRID)
It is responsible for the promotion of a competitive and efficient market
by improving industrial relations, removing barriers and safeguarding the
employment rights of individuals. (It is like the „Arbeiterkammer“
in Austria.)
3. Resources and Strategy Directorate (RSD)
It provides corporate services and economics, research and evaluation
support to all staff in the Employment Department headquarters.
4. The Employment Service
It’s main aim is to help promote a competitive and efficient labour
market by giving positive help to unemployed people through their search for a
job.
Its aims in relation to training are:
- to provide unemployed people with job
opportunities,
- job search seminars,
- job review workshops,
- restart courses,
- to provide particular assistance to young people
with a disability to take advantage of work and training
opportunities.
2.2 Industrial organisations
The ITO´s (Industrial Training Organisations) are responsible for
defining the current and future training needs of their respective industry
sectors. They are doing this by improving company performance and promoting
meaningful standards of competence.
- identifying and monitoring key skill needs and
training requirements
- developing and promoting the resulting vocational
qualifications
are other assignments.
There are about 120 different Industrial Training
Organisations.
2.3 Local organisations
The TEC´s (Training and Enterprise Councils) are independent companies
who have contracts with the Secretary of State. TEC´s are the heart of
local training initiatives. They help to provide the country with the skilled
and enterprising workforce it needs. Their aim is to provide particle
community-based help to employers investing in training. For example the
mission of the Hampshire TEC is: „To encourage economic growth through
effective training and enterprise.“
Now some facts of Hampshire TEC:
young people training 7036
young people with special needs 286
adults in training 1565
adults achieving a job or qualification 1011
For training for young people they needed 600,000 pounds. They are so good
because they are working with some of the industrial sectors to identify ways in
which it could best meet their needs.
The TEC in Hampshire is so useful because more than 11000 workers lost
their job and so they could prepare training initiatives designed to reskill
these workers.
In Scotland for example, 21,4 million pound where spent in enterprise
training, 92,3 million in youth training, and 103,6 million pound in adult
training. The companies received a total of 329,5 million pounds from the
Scottish Enterprise in 1991-1992. This provided 37,500 youth training places,
and 7,500 young people left with vocational qualifications.
There is no difference between Scotland, England, Wales and Northern
Ireland.
3. Policy Initiatives
The policies which I describe afterwards, are part of an Employment
Department budget of 2,680 million pounds for training, enterprise and
vocational education
programs.
3.1 Training for Work
Training for Work is especially for people who where unemployed for six
months ore more. There are places for 150,000 people planned. People learn to
improve and update skills or to learn new ones.
3.2 Youth Training
It is for 16 to 17 year old people who leave school. They learn till they
are 18 years old. Youth Training puts great emphasis on raising the level of
qualifications of new entrans to the workforce. More than 3,500,000 young people
were trained since 1983.
3.3 Employment Training
Is the training for people aged 18 or over who have been unemployed for 6
months or more. Like Youth Training it is delivered by training providers and
over 1,400,000 people have entered the programme since 1992.
3.4 Training Credits
Credits issued to young people which allow them to choose training to
approved standards. Some TECs are extending the principle to cover the training
of adults.
3.5 Investors in People

importance of the link between the development of people and business
success.
3.6 Technical and Vocational Education Initiative
Technical and Vocational Education Initiative is responsible for promoting
closer links between the education system and industry and
commerce.
3.7 Compacts
These are local agreements between employers, local education authorities
and training providers in inner city areas to help young people gain
experience.
3.8 Career Development Loans
Career Development Loans are loans to encourage individuals to invest in
their own
future.
3.9 High Technology National Training
This is a training for unemployed people in high technology skills to fill
vacancies for known national skills
shortages.
3.10 Enterprise in Higher Educations
Enterprise in Higher Educations is funding to develop higher education
graduates who are better prepared for working
life.
3.11 Jobcentres
Jobcentres are community-bases sites which will soon be integrated with
benefit offices to offer a one stop service to their clients.
4. Training Organisations and employer Training
In every sector of economy in Britain are some private companies that offer
a range of training products. The National Index of Training lists these
organisations and divides the economy into
sectors:
4.1 Communication
The training company BMI International offers different courses in body
language for managers. There is a course called Communication for the
Countryside, & Communication Training for the
Government.
4.2 Computers and Information Technology
350 organisations offer 2000 different courses in computers and information
technology. Most of this courses are not just in spoken words, but in the
different computer
languages.
4.3 Finance
In this courses you learn to deal with the needs of business people from
ethnic minorities, for small businesses and for high specialised businessmen.
4.4 Management
There are courses offered which are special for land purchase and business
start-up in France, training in Export Credit Management, .. . But there are
also effective courses for farmers in the agriculture sector.
4.5 Industrial Management
General management courses may not meet the needs of those who have to
control the productive process, so industrial management courses are available
which concentrate on practical application. This training helps people to become
instructors in a wide range of industrial
activities.
4.6 Marketing
In this courses you learn to sell techniques, especially through
telephones. But you also learn to promote and sell in
shops.
4.7 Training Trainers
Finally the training sector needs to train people to deliver its services.
You learn everything you need to train people who need
help.
4.8 BBC Select
BBC-Select is a broadcast training programme during the night for videoing
by those who have a decoder. You are allowed to make copies and borrow them to
friends or show them to different groups.
5. Education and
Qualifications
5.1 Higher Education
The Higher Education sector in Britain is a major provider of specialist
training in vocational and academic subjects. Most of the wives are studying law
or teacher training. Men’s most wanted are computer studies.
5.2 The National Council for Vocational Qualifications
It is training more people to higher levels so they can produce good
quality products and services. They are based on standards developed by
industry and commerce. They also produce information in other
languages.
6. Community
Inner cities present many problems for government agencies that seek to
retrain and reskill the workforce. But in many cases the communities themselves
respond and with government and private sector funding they set up their own
training and enterprise centres. Investing
