授業の目的 【英語】
Goals of the Course | | | This course subject considers how firm-based research, education, and training contribute to the creation and dissemination of knowledge and the formation and development of skills, and thereby to industrial and economic development. This course subject is divided into three parts. The first part theoretically and historically analyzes the relationship between skills development and economic development. The second part examines the role of institutions associated with the formation and dissemination of knowledge and skills, such as research and development (R&D) laboratories, corporate training centers, and technical and vocational education and training (TVET) in improving the industrial performance. The third part explores the effects of digitization of the workplace on firm-based skill formation and considers implications of the ongoing process toward “knowledge-based economy” for the nature of work, the patterns of skill formation, and the labor markets in developing countries. This course includes a few field visits to corporate training centers in Nagoya and adjacent cities for observing the actual practice of in-firm human resources development. |
