Adoption and Growth of Ⅰ Vocational Training Vocational training that drove ‘The Miracle on the Han River’ Key to rapid economic development is human resources development
Ⅰ Vocational Education and Vocational Training Relations between VE and VT • Korea like other Asian countries, VE and VT are administered by different ministries : MOE,MOEL
Ⅰ Vocational Education and Vocational Training Formal education system • Korean education system has 6-3-3-4 pattern
Ⅰ Development of vocational training VE alone could not produce sufficient manpower in early industrialization stage -Gov. intervene and took the lead in training Vocational Training Act(1967) : cultivating manpower through public training, subsidizing cost of VT conducted by company -Number of companies conducting VT was sharply decreased after Gov. cut down subsidies due to budget limit in 1972 ⇒ the reason of introducing mandatory system Act on Special measures for VT(1974) : mandatory training by private business(penalty)→ Basic Act for Vocational Training (levy system,1976) Employment Insurance Act(1995) : VCDT under EI system
Ⅰ Development of vocational training Supporting business(using EIS fund) from regulative authorities -Mandatory training was abolished ※ Korean EIS consists of Unemployment Benefit, and Employment Stabilization and Vocational Competency Development programs. That’s why it is called employment insurance, not unemployment insurance Worker’s Vocational competency Development Act(2004) -Focus on improving competency for the employed -Autonomous training of the company centered on demanders -Establish life-long vocational competency development VT system change : Subsidizing → Obligation(Penalty, Levy) → VCDT Project under EIS
Ⅰ Vocational Training and Employment Insurance Structure of EIS and Premium Rate Program under EI Premium Premium (employee) (employer) Unemployment Benefit Program 0.65% 0.65% Business under 150 - 0.25% employees Business more than 150 - 0.45% employees(Preferential company) Employment Business 150~1,000 - 0.65% Stabilization employees(excluding and VCDT preferential) Program Business more than1,000 - 0.85% employees
Ⅰ Vocational Training and Employment Insurance VT under EIS Before EIS After EIS - Mandatory training by private - Pay EI premium, and paid back business(or levy) cost after conducting training - Some business such as - All business manufacturing and construction (not all business) - All companies with 1 or more employees - Companies more than 300 employees - Training is conducted under EIS as active market policy
Ⅰ Vocational Competency Development Programs Training for unemployed(as of 2018) Learning Card for job seekers: 268.4 billion won (168,293 participants) Training for National Essential and Strategic Industries : 426.1 billion won(61,366 participants) Private sector training Training for Leading the 4th Industrial Revolution : Training 11 billion won for un- Leading training institute: 20, training courses: 43, participants: 921 persons employed Specific Training for general high school students who are not willing to enter university 69.2 billion won(8,307 participants) Korea polytechnics: 112.9 billion won Public Trainee: 28,990 persons (technicians and craftsmen courses) training Korea University of Technology and Education: 24.5 billion won Trainee: 4,870 persons
Ⅰ Vocational Competency Development Programs Training for employed(as of 2018) Training by Employers (direct/commissioned): 435.1billion won, Training Plan: 2,100,000 Support Work - Learning Dual System: 459.8 billion won for No. of participating companies: 7,680 , No. of learning workers: 41,121 Employer Training Support for Establishment of Learning Organization: 1.8 billion won, Support plan: 91 companies Training for employed Core Vocational Competency Enhancement Training: (training for improvement) Learning Card System for Employed: Direct 94 billion won, Training Plan: 470,000 persons Support for Support for the Self-employed: employed 1.3 billion won ,Training plan: 3,000 persons Consortium Training for National HRD: 119.6 billion Won, Training plan: run 143 joint training centers Joint training Regional and industrial specific training: 34.8 billion won ,Training plan: 50,000 persons
Ⅰ Vocational Competency Development Programs Learning Card System for My Job • The Learning Card System for My Job is the most representative form of Korean VT • It provides job seekers with a certain amount of funding(US $ 2,000) for training expenses to allow them to attend VT programs • 20 to 95% of the actual training expenses will be supported(the rest is self paying) • But those who are employed or start up their own business in related to training field within 6 months will be reimbursed self-pay
Ⅰ Vocational Competency Development Programs National Essential/Strategic Industry Training • Government designates some industries which are important for economic development and suffered from labor shortage such as machinery, metals, electricity, and power as NESI • 122 occupational categories were chosen including occupational categories preparing for the 4th industrial revolution such as IoT, big data, Fin-Tech, etc • Unlike the Learning Card System, this system provides all training expenses(no limit of training cost, no self-pay)
Ⅰ Vocational Competency Development Programs Training for employed • If employer conducts training for their employee, he(she) will get the reimbursement of cost from Employment Insurance Fund(Employer Training) -100% for SME, 40% for big company • There are also special policies for SME such as consortium training, establishment of learning org, etc. • Vulnerable workers such as irregular, aged(45 years old or more) or working in SME could apply for Learning Card to take training outside(Learning Card for employed)
Changes in Circumstances Ⅱ Surrounding Vocational Training
Ⅱ Changes in Circumstances Surrounding Vocational Training Low growth of the Korean economy • GDP growth rate of 1.0% by 2060 (OECD) Low growth • Employment elasticity was 0.416 in 2016, the lowest in 5 years (Korea Labor Institute) Reduction in economically active population • Higher retirement age(OECD 63∼64 vs Korea 70∼72) Low birth rate, aging • The number of working age population (15∼49 years) will decrease by 300,000 every year from 2020 (Korea Statistics) Paradigm shift in economy and social environment for intelligent informatization • 170,000 people will be required in 12 new industries by 2020 (Korea The 4th Institute for Advancement of Technology). Industrial Revolution • 80% of doctors will be replaced by big data (Vinod Khosla, founder of Sun Microsystems) • 90% of news articles will be written by a computer by 2030. (Christian Hammond, CTO of Narrative Science)
Ⅱ Mega Trend: 4th Industrial Revolution “The 4th industrial revolution" is the most fundamental changes for vocational training This is the era of the 4th industrial revolution • The cycle of technology change is shortened extremely, and the 4th industrial revolution has just begun. The 1st The 2nd The 3rd The 4th industrial revolution industrial revolution industrial revolution industrial revolution The 4th industrial revolution: from 18th century 19th to early 20th century Late 20th century 2015 Knowledge and Ambient intelligence Mechanization based on Mass production based on information revolution revolution based on steam engine electric energy based on computers and IoT/CPS/artificial internet intelligence Innovate society with industrial Emergence of global IT structure system based on Mass production using The British textile industry companies led by the US with hyper connectivity and hyper conveyor belt with electricity became a huge industry based internet and smart revolution intelligence among people, supply in a plant on steam engine. things and space.
Ⅱ Mega Trend: 4th Industrial Revolution The 4th industrial revolution is reshaping the labor market!

Ⅱ Mega Trend: 4th Industrial Revolution The 4th industrial revolution is reshaping the labor market! Possibility of technical unemployment Decrease in 47% of jobs in the US will disappear due to advancement in automation. employment (Frey&Osborne, Oxford University) Increase Create demand for new products + improve work productivity in employment Bessen(15): No. of ATMs increased from 100,000 in 1995 to 400,000 in 2000 but the number of tellers, whose number was expected to decrease, increased by 2 % every year.(change in work: simple money handling-> financial product marketing) Common ground: structured work will decrease (regardless of physical or knowledge labor), the work that requires social intelligence (Frey and Osborne) cannot be replaced easily. 12% 12% Share of jobs that are 10% 9% 9% 9% 6% highly likely to be (26th out of 26 countries) replaced by a robot (OECD, 2016) Germany Spain UK Average US France Korea
Ⅲ Limitations and Issues of Current System
Ⅲ Limitations and Issues Vocational training has focused on nurturing low skilled people while the demand for highly skilled people increased. Nurturing just low skilled labor • 170,000 human resources are required newly in promising industries by 2020 (Korea Institute for Advancement of Technology) • Current long-term training focuses on low level of technology and skills. * Participation ratio in national training: 48% for high school graduates, 18% for college graduates, 34% for university graduates Long-term training is required even after hiring university Difference graduates between education and • Invest about 60 million won per 1 university graduate new employee field (Korea Employees Federation) • Many university students depend on private education to improve their skills. * IT sector trainees responded that even though they majored in IT in university, the need to have training to work in that field (field visit to Bit Academy)
Ⅲ Limitations and Issues Competency of the late middle aged people Lack of core (55~65is at the lowest among OECD countries) competency of • The competency of the late middle aged people is at the lowest among OECD countries the late middle and gap to that of the youth is severe.(Result of OECD adult core competency aged people assessment) Competency gap between the youth Ratio of those who are lack of and the late middle aged (points, skills by age (%) OECD comparison) Government-led Lack of incorporating market condition as training is led by the training system government. • As the government leads the allocation of training, the training courses do not reflect the demand in the market properly. • Right of selecting training course is limited as the information on training courses and results is not disclosed fully.
Ⅲ Limitations and Issues 4th industrial Gap between education Low level of training revolution And field · New technology and · Need to reflect demands · Need for training jobs created in industrial fields into program for highly · Existing industries education and training educated job seekers become obsolete ⇓ ⇓ ⇓ · NCS-based education · Establish a training · Establish a lifelong- and training system for nurturing learning system · Adoption of training to professionals · Respond flexibly to improve the capability to new technologies solve problems.
