Title: The Economics of Skills: Pathways to Employability
Description: The Economics of Skills: Pathways of Employability is all about the economics of skills and the relevance of the skills for exploring the newer frontiers of the employability. Christopher & Taylor have explained how pre-graduation on-campus employment can determine the development of employability skills in the graduates. The role of academic institution for the inculcation of the marketable-skills among the graduating students has also been highlighted. The book goes by Sharma explaining how the Skills Development is important for an economic system. The book stresses upon the fact that developing skills is equally important for the graduates looking for their first employment (by skilling them) as well as for the existing workforce (by re-skilling them). The transformational leadership as one of the skills of an entrepreneur has also been advocated by Rono Kiplangat Kenneth. The book goes by highlighting the importance of proficiency in English as one of the key employability skills for the tourism & hospitality sector in Philippines (Cenby Eppie G. Gaytos et al.). The role of mobile technologies and their relevance for the next generation learners has been discussed by Pratibha underlining the role of modern communication technologies for achieving employability skills as learning enablers. The book consists of content to present the importance and relevance of employability skills and the ways the same could be achieved. The book successfully correlates the employability skills and their importance for generating employment, entrepreneurship and value creation opportunities within an economic system.
