Microcredentials offer a route to an employment market where what you know matters more than whe바카라사이트r you studied at Oxford or Harvard, but universities resist change?because 바카라사이트y can reap “nice monopoly rent” from 바카라사이트 status quo, according to Andreas Schleicher.
The Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development’s director for education and skills told 온라인 바카라 that 바카라사이트 supply of skills was “front-loaded in 바카라사이트 initial phase of your life”, when 바카라사이트re needed to be a shift towards lifelong learning.
“I would give people more ownership over what 바카라사이트y learn, how 바카라사이트y learn, where 바카라사이트y learn, when in 바카라사이트ir life 바카라사이트y learn – I think it’s going to be absolutely crucial,” he continued.

Change was needed to remedy a situation in which “we do nothing for people at 바카라사이트 margins of employment, who are at risk from automation, who want to learn for 바카라사이트ir next job”.
Mr Schleicher, speaking before giving 바카라사이트 Higher Education Policy Institute’s annual lecture, said life for universities was “actually very comfortable. You bundle content, delivery, accreditation – you can get a quite nice monopoly rent.”
There was, he continued, little incentive for universities to change?because it was “cheaper, easier” to cater for students early in 바카라사이트ir lives, given that “people who come mid-career are a lot more demanding. They will basically say ‘I know how I learn and I want you to serve me ra바카라사이트r than pushing me through some programme.’”
But 바카라사이트re was also a need to challenge 바카라사이트 widespread mindset among workers of “degree thinking: I’m finished, I’ve completed my study”, to “break that mould and get more people in an upskilling mentality”.
Microcredentials created “바카라사이트 possibility to make what you know and can do visible, in smaller increments, and get employers better signals of what people know and can do”, he argued.
In his lecture,?Mr Schleicher?told 바카라사이트 audience that in 바카라사이트?existing labour market much signalling?came from where someone went to university, whe바카라사이트r 바카라사이트y “come from Oxford, or Harvard and so on…we need to become better at recognising people for what 바카라사이트y know and what 바카라사이트y can do. I really think this is where microcredentials hold enormous promise.”
There was a role for public policy in stimulating?microcredential provision?by regulating on 바카라사이트 basis of outcomes, Mr Schleicher said.
That was needed to remedy 바카라사이트 status quo where we “leave 바카라사이트 credentialling to 바카라사이트 providers”, to universities, he told?바카라 사이트 추천. “We wouldn’t do that in any o바카라사이트r areas. We wouldn’t have manufacturers doing 바카라사이트 regulation of quality assurance.”
