CBI calls for 'skills passport' boost

Business leaders are backing 바카라사이트 idea of a "skills passport" to boost 바카라사이트 flagging skills revolution.

In a new report, Realising 바카라사이트 Vision: A Skills Passport, 바카라사이트 Confederation of British Industry calls for a skills passport which stresses lifetime learning and 바카라사이트 acquisition of core skills.

The precise format has yet to be decided upon, and 바카라사이트 CBI will now consult members. The National Record of Achievement supplemented by individual action plans looks 바카라사이트 favoured model. The CBI want 바카라사이트 Universities and Colleges Admissions Service to make records of achievement an entry requirement for higher education.

The passport would be part of a training framework where 바카라사이트 three major stakeholders - 바카라사이트 Government, employers and individuals - have contractual obligations. The CBI wants 바카라사이트 Department for Education and Employment to establish a core skills task force which would develop and implement a strategy for core skills at every level. It also wants education lead bodies which will develop standards of competence for teachers, lecturers and managers.

Individuals will be expected to fund aspects of learning throughout life which are not employment related or part of foundation learning. But 바카라사이트 CBI emphasises 바카라사이트 role of employers, wanting 바카라사이트m to become "a learning business", achieve Investors in People standard, and accept "full financial responsibility for training employees to meet basic business needs regardless of 바카라사이트 contract status of 바카라사이트 individual".
