Underlying the increasing pressure for new models of TVET provision is the rapid pace of technological change, demand for a work force which is highly responsive to evolving needs and a transforming market place that calls for higher order skills and  lifelong learning. The book proposes a re-engineered, modernized TVET system that fosters an innovative approach which enhances the employability of workers as well as the sustainability of their livelihoods. The book includes contributions from leading policy makers, researchers, and practitioners, including those in the private sector in analyzing and forecasting the most urgent priorities in skills development.  The book argues for creative approaches to TVET design and delivery particularly with a view to improving job prospects , and meeting the goals of inclusion, sustainable development and social cohesion. Addressing issues such as the chronic mismatches between skills acquired and actual skills required in the work place, the volume proposes diversified approaches towards workforce development and partnerships with the private sector to improve the quality and relevance of skills development .   The new imperatives created by ?greening? economies and responses required in skills development and training are addressed. Developing TVET is a high priority for governments in the Asia Pacific region as they  seek to achieve long-term sustainable  growth since the .continued success of their economic destinies depend on it. The volume also includes an emerging framework for skills development for inclusive and sustainable growth in the Asia and Pacific region. 410 0$aTechnical and Vocational Education and Training: Issues, Concerns and Prospects,$x1871-3041 ;$v19 606 $aProfessional education 606 $aVocational education 606 $aProfessional & Vocational Education$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/O35000 610 $aAsian Development Bank 610 $aTVET 610 $aTechnical and Vocational Education and Training 610 $aUNESCO 610 $aemployability Asia 610 $askills development 615 0$aProfessional education. 615 0$aVocational education. 615 14$aProfessional & Vocational Education. 676 $a370.113095 700 $aMaclean$b Rupert$4edt$0802108 702 $aMaclean$b Rupert$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aJagannathan$b Shanti$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aSarvi$b Jouko$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 801 2$bUkMaJRU 912 $a996208492603316 996 $aSkills Development for Inclusive and Sustainable Growth in Developing Asia-Pacific$93358421 997 $aUNISA LEADER 02868nam 2200685Ia 450 001 9910959909403321 005 20251116150636.0 010 $a0-19-979259-3 010 $a1-280-44186-0 010 $a9786610441860 010 $a1-4237-3562-5 010 $a0-19-535771-X 010 $a1-60256-006-4 035 $a(CKB)1000000000028747 035 $a(EBL)578793 035 $a(OCoLC)727647149 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000116499 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11135867 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000116499 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10036196 035 $a(PQKB)10851252 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC578793 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC271124 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL578793 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebr10087196 035 $a(CaONFJC)MIL44186 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL271124 035 $a(CaONFJC)MIL631842 035 $a(OCoLC)936850024 035 $a(OCoLC)33818051 035 $a(FINmELB)ELB166466 035 $a(EXLCZ)991000000000028747 100 $a19951107d1996 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur|n|---||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 10$aBuzz $ethe science and lore of alcohol and caffeine /$fStephen Braun 205 $a1st ed. 210 $aNew York $cOxford University Press$d1996 215 $a1 online resource (281 p.) 300 $aDescription based upon print version of record. 311 08$a0-19-509289-9 320 $aIncludes bibliographical references (p.

Yet for most people they remain as mysterious and unpredictable as the spirits they were once thought to be. Now, in Buzz, Stephen Braun takes us on a myth-shattering tour of these two popular substances, one that blends fascinating science with colorful lore, and that includes cameo appearances by Shakespeare and Balzac, Buddhist monks and Arabian goat herders, even Mikhail Gorbachev and David Letterman (who once quipped, ""If it we 606 $aAlcohol$vPopular works 606 $aCaffeine$vPopular works 615 0$aAlcohol 615 0$aCaffeine 676 $a615/.7828 700 $aBraun$b Stephen$01860125 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910959909403321 996 $aBuzz$94464654 997 $aUNINA
