    Perspectives de l'OCDE sur les compétences 2017 - Compétences et chaînes de valeur mondiales

    Depuis les années 90, le monde est entré dans une nouvelle phase de la mondialisation. Les technologies de l’information et des communications, la libéralisation des échanges et la baisse des coûts de transport ont permis aux entreprises et aux pays de segmenter le processus de production en chaînes de valeur mondiales (CVM). De nombreux produits sont désormais conçus dans un pays et assemblés dans un autre, à partir de pièces fabriquées dans plusieurs pays. Trente pour cent de la valeur des exportations des pays de l’OCDE proviennent de l’étanger. Dans ce nouveau contexte, les CVM et les compétences sont plus étroitement liées que jamais. Les compétences jouent un rôle clé dans la caractérisation des avantages comparatifs des pays dans les CVM. Nombre des opportunités et des défis induits par les CVM sont déterminés par les compétences de chaque pays.L’édition 2017 des Perspectives de l’OCDE sur les compétences montre comment les pays peuvent tirer pleinement parti des chaînes de valeur mondiales, sur les plans économique et social, en investissant dans les compétences de leur population. Il est essentiel à cet égard d’adopter une approche interministérielle. Les pays doivent mettre au point un ensemble cohérent de politiques en lien avec les compétences, telles que la politique éducative, la législation sur la protection de l’emploi et la politique migratoire, en coordination avec la politique commerciale et la politique de l’innovation. Ce rapport présente de nouvelles analyses à partir de l’Enquête sur les compétences des adultes et de la base de données sur les échanges en valeur ajoutée. Il explique également ce que les pays devraient faire pour se spécialiser dans des secteurs d’activité technologiquement avancés.

    How much will the literacy level of working-age people change from now to 2022? (OECD Education Today Blog)

    Taken as a whole, the OECD’s Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA) and Survey of Adult Skills (PIAAC) present a mixed picture for Korea and Singapore. As their economies have grown, these two countries’ education systems have seen fast and impressive improvements; both now rank among PISA’s top performers.

    Is the growth of international student mobility coming to a halt? (OECD Education Today Blog)

    Higher education is one of the most globally integrated systems of the modern world. There still are important barriers to the international recognition of degrees or the transfer of credits, but some of the basic features of higher education enjoy global convergence and collaboration.

    Is free higher education fair? (OECD Education Today Blog)

    Skills have become the currency of 21st century economies and, despite the significant increase the UK has seen in university graduation over the last decade, the earnings of workers with a Master’s degree remain over 80% higher than those of workers with just five good GCSEs or an equivalent vocational qualification.

    The fork in the road towards gender equality (OECD Education Today Blog)

    Gender biases can be persistent. Too persistent. A simple exercise to illustrate the point: Picture a doctor or a professor. You will most likely think of a man. Now think of nurses and teachers and you are likely to imagine a woman. This unconscious gender bias is rooted in years of associating male and female attributes to specific roles in society. Inevitably, it also influences students’ career choices.

    Computers and the Future of Skill Demand

    Computer scientists are working on reproducing all human skills using artificial intelligence, machine learning and robotics. Unsurprisingly then, many people worry that these advances will dramatically change work skills in the years ahead and perhaps leave many workers unemployable. This report develops a new approach to understanding these computer capabilities by using a test based on the OECD’s Survey of Adult Skills (PIAAC) to compare computers with human workers. The test assesses three skills that are widely used at work and are an important focus of education: literacy, numeracy and problem solving with computers. Most workers in OECD countries use the three skills every day. However, computers are close to reproducing these skills at the proficiency level of most adults in the workforce. Only 13% of workers now use these skills on a daily basis with a proficiency that is clearly higher than computers. The findings raise troubling questions about whether most workers will be able to acquire the skills they need as these new computer capabilities are increasingly used over the next few decades. To answer those questions, the report’s approach could be extended across the full range of work skills. We need to know how computers and people compare across all skills to develop successful policies for work and education for the future.

    Building Skills for All in Australia - Policy Insights from the Survey of Adult Skills

    Australia’s overall performance in the Survey of Adult Skills (PIAAC) ranges from average to very good. However, three million adults, representing one-fifth of the working age population, have low literacy and/or numeracy skills. Building Skills for All in Australia describes the characteristics of the low-skilled and discusses the consequences that low skills have on economic and social development for both individuals and Australian society. The review examines the strengths of the Australian skills system, highlighting the strong basic skills found in the migrant population, widespread proficiency in use of ICT and the positive role of workplaces in skills development. The study explores, moreover, the challenges facing the skills system and what can be done to enhance basic skills through education, training or other workplace measures. One of a series of studies on low basic skills, the review presents new analyses of PIAAC data and concludes with a series of policy recommendations. These include: increasing participation of women in STEM fields, addressing underperformance of post-secondary VET students and preventing drop-out, improving pre-apprenticeships, enhancing mathematics provision within secondary education and tackling poor access to childcare facilities for young mothers.
