Webinar—the OECD will unveil new data about the jobs young people want & unpack why aspirations often fail to recognise the labour market realities
OECD Webinar: Are teenagers prepared for their careers? The world’s biggest ever global survey raises serious concerns.
In this interactive webinar, the OECD will unveil new data about which jobs young people want and unpack why those job aspirations often fail to recognise the realities of the labour market. This is the largest ever study on the job ambitions of 15-year-olds, speaking to 700,000 students in 80 countries and economies.
You will be able to put your questions to the OECD’s Director of Education and Skills, Andreas Schleicher and an expert panel. The webinar examines ways to bridge the aspiration gap, connect education with evolving job markets and expand access to real-world career experiences, particularly for disadvantaged students. The OECD report ‘The State of Global Teenage Career Preparation’ has been produced with support from the Education and Employers Charity and Amazon.
Speaker include:
-Andreas Schleicher, Director for Education and Skills at the OECD
-Anthony Mann, Senior Analyst at OECD’s Education and Skills directorate
-Peter Cheese, Chief Executive of CIPD
Moderated by Nick Chambers, Chief Executive, Education and Employers
