Closing Skills Gap Through Quality Apprenticeships and Future Work

The world of work is undergoing profound change. These changes are creating skills gaps, mismatches and shortages that are resulting in unfilled jobs and lost productivity. To close this skills gap, the ILO's social partners--governments, employers, and workers—have adopted a sweeping new Recommendation on Quality Apprenticeships focused on updating its approach to skills and quality apprenticeships and to help workers and employers find ways to skill, reskill and upskill people to adapt to rapidly changing labour markets. Sharing their insights in this podcast are Martin Henry, Research, Policy and Advocacy Coordinator of Education International, and Kathryn Rowan, Executive Director of GAN, the Global Apprenticeship Network.

This podcast is also available on Spotify and Apple Podcasts.
