Descripción
Sumario:Human resources, training, qualifications and skills play an essential part in the development of regional economies. The notion of "learning" regions which has now become self-evident has yet to be translated into practice: but under which conditions and what are the priorities? This publication gives a comprehensive picture of current practices and future issues. Regional policies are increasingly focusing on human resources and their orientation towards market demand and improvement of partnerships. The great diversity of regional approaches to human resource development in industrialised countries shows that an efficient regional governance, coupled with concern for equity, can reinforce and consolidate national policies. This volume casts a new light on these issues, providing a useful source of information and inspiration for regional actors and their national partners.
Notas:Also published in French under the title: Compétitivité régionale et qualifications.
Debates and case studies from a conference held January 13-14, 1997, and organized by the Federal Ministry of the Economy with the cooperation of the Federal Ministry of Education, Science, and Research, and of the Ministry of Technology in Berlin, with the support of the European Commission.
