| Annotation | Scenario techniques are used in this report to describe and examine a range of alternative futures for the learning and skills sector in 20 years time. Against a background of increasing globalisation, technological change, the continuing risk of social exclusion for some and changing social attitudes, it highlights key choices around different levels of public investment and different degrees of regulation in the labour market. The authors assess the implications of these choices for the structure and content of post-16 learning, and pose a series of questions for policy-makers. Likely to be of most interest is content regarding older workers, skills shortages, "old" and "new" economy skills, and social inclusion. (RH). |
