SUMMARY:Is There a Skill Gap for Entry-Level IT Positions? Evidence from a National IT Helpdesk Survey featuring Andrew Weaver
DESCRIPTION:Co-sponsored with the Office of Equity\, Sustainability and Democracy. \nApril 6\, 2018\nSome analysts maintain that inadequate worker skills are holding back industry growth. These claims are often reinforced by commentators who assert that technological changes coupled with insufficient education have resulted in a shortage of (STEM) skills. Dr. Weaver used a detailed nationally representative skill survey focusing on computer helpdesk technicians to shed light on these claims. \nAndrew Weaver is an Assistant Professor in the School of Labor and Employment Relations at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. His research focuses on the impact of institutions on labor market outcomes\, with a particular focus on industry skill demands and workforce-related public policy issues.\nVideo

SUMMARY:The Increasing Underemployment and Decreasing Job Control of Highly Qualified Employees: Implications for Further Training and Workplace Change featuring David Livingstone
DESCRIPTION:April 20\, 2018\nCo-sponsored with the Office of Equity\, Sustainability and Democracy. \nHighly qualified professional employees are widely regarded as central strategic resources for “knowledge economies”. However\, there is mounting evidence that these “knowledge workers” are experiencing both increasing underemployment and decreasing job control\, as well as diminishing participation in both further education and job-related informal learning. Prospects for employment and educational reforms to reverse current trends will be assessed. \nD.W. Livingstone is Canada Research Chair in Lifelong Learning and Work and Professor Emeritus at the Ontario Institute for Studies in Education (OISE)\, University of Toronto.\nVideo
