Starting Points – Pre 1980
• Dynamic complex system
• Starting conditions are important– Low levels of skills training– Employment for unskilled and school leavers– Culture of training restricted to a few large
(mainly government) employers– Low percentages in final years of schooling
and post school education

Pressure for Change
• Skill shortages and narrow training base• Technical training institutions under-funded and
disconnected from industry• Schooling curriculum seen as irrelevant and
disconnected from the needs of the labour market and post school education and training pathways
• Technological improvements• High unemployment particularly youth and unskilled
adults• Economic crisis followed by economic reform
(regulatory, institutional, cultural)
