SUMMARY:Masterclass: Harnessing Private Sector Power to Build the Workforce of Tomorrow: Driving Productivity\, Decent Work and Social Justice through Skills
DESCRIPTION:This masterclass will highlight effective models of private sector leadership\, innovative partnerships that are helping to future-proof workforces\, close skills gaps\, and create pathways to decent work. It aims to inspire action and support more inclusive\, resilient\, and skills-ready labour markets. \nThe world of work is changing rapidly. Automation\, artificial intelligence\, the green transition\, and demographic shifts are transforming industries and accelerating demands for new skills. Yet\, millions of young people and workers are being left behind as skills gaps widen\, threatening productivity\, employability\, and a just transition. \nClosing that gap requires stronger leadership and deeper engagement from the private sector. Businesses are not just part of the conversation; they are central to the solution. They see skills needs in real time\, understand where talent shortages are emerging\, and know where training systems are no longer keeping pace. \nYet in most countries\, private sector engagement in skills development remains too limited. At the same time\, policymakers and business leaders are actively looking for good practices that show what meaningful private sector action looks like and how it can make a real difference. \nThis masterclass will highlight effective models of private sector leadership\, innovative partnerships that are helping to future-proof workforces\, close skills gaps\, and create pathways to decent work. It aims to inspire action and support more inclusive\, resilient\, and skills-ready labour markets. \nObjectives\nParticipants will: \n\nExplore proven private sector approaches to skilling\, upskilling\, and reskilling at scale\nUnderstand how industry-led initiatives boost workforce productivity\, expand decent work\, and advance social justice\nGain practical policy insights to strengthen private sector engagement in national skills systems\nLearn from innovative TVET and lifelong learning partnerships\nConnect with a global community of practitioners\, policy makers\, and business leaders\n\nTarget groups\nPolicy makers and government officials\, employers’ and workers’ organisations; private sector; skills development specialists and researchers; education and training providers\, and universities; development partners\, banks\, investors\, and innovators. \n  \nPlease check the agenda and registration here: Harnessing Private Sector Power to Build the Workforce of Tomorrow: Driving Productivity\, Decent Work and Social Justice through Skills | International Labour Organization \n  \n

SUMMARY:Crisis as a catalyst for innovation? Dual vocational education and training after Covid-19
DESCRIPTION:The conference will feature presentations on new research into the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic on vocational education and training by researchers from the Swiss Federal University for Vocational Education and Training SFUVET and the University of Applied Sciences of Northwestern Switzerland FHNW. \nThe findings are based on the project ‘Short- and long-term impacts of Covid-19 on vocational education and training’\, which was carried out as part of the Swiss National Science Foundation’s national research programme 80\, ‘Covid-19 in Society’. \nIn a series of short presentations\, speakers will explore how – and whether – processes and practices in company-based training changed during the pandemic. Topics include the health and well-being of apprentices\, training practices within companies\, and transitions within and beyond dual vocational education and training. Particular attention will be paid to the innovations and experiences that have remained relevant beyond the pandemic. \nThe panel discussion brings together former apprentices\, VET trainers and VET experts to discuss their experiences and examine the extent to which the crisis acted as a catalyst for innovation. Together\, they will explore long-term challenges\, opportunities and potential lessons for the future development of vocational education and training.
