Access the OECD webinar on their latest report.
In this webinar, the OECD unveiled 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.
Participants put questions to the OECD’s Director of Education and Skills, Andreas Schleicher and an expert panel of guests. 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 by the Career Readiness project with support from the Education and Employers Charity and Amazon.
Speakers 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
-
Cath Possamai, Director of Talent Acquisition, Amazon EMEA, India, APJC, LATAM
-
Nick Soar, Executive Principal, Harris Federation of Academies
