„It is simply hard to tear your eyes away from the slow-motion train wreck that is Europe. Historians will be writing about this moment in time for centuries, and with an ever-present media as we see it unfold before our eyes. And yes, we need to tear our gaze away from Europe and look around at what is happening in the rest of the world. There is about to be an eerily near-simultaneous ending to the quantitative easing by the four major central banks while global growth is slowing down. And so, while the future of Europe is up for grabs, the true danger to global markets and growth may be elsewhere. …”

Part II. Hungarian Practices for youth integration

Page 12: Active Labour Market Policy Measures for Young Unemployed to Integrate into Labour Market

Content

• Career guidance • Cooperation with schools • Active measures • National plans for youth guarantee

programmes

Page 13: Active Labour Market Policy Measures for Young Unemployed to Integrate into Labour Market

Career guidance• Hungarian PES based on the mandate of the Hungarian

ministry responsible for labour has been developing a national lifelong guidance system since 2007.

• Since 2010 the current government has been managing the national programme; the current phase has strong emphasise on open vacancies, vocational training & dual system developments

• The Berlin Communiqué (3rd July, 2013) on PES actions and youth guarantee programmes highlights the further development of a national vocational counselling structure and a strong link between schools and PES

Page 14: Active Labour Market Policy Measures for Young Unemployed to Integrate into Labour Market

Cooperation with (primary & VET) schools: recent trends

• The head office of the Hungarian PES was merged with the National Adult & Vocational Education Institute in 2012 • orienting the VET system for the long-term open vacancies; • stipendium for primary school students at

grades 7 & 8; • national list (Gov. edict 331/2012 (XI.28.) on

sponsored and non-sponsored vocational occupation at county levels

Page 15: Active Labour Market Policy Measures for Young Unemployed to Integrate into Labour Market

Dual training, work practice

• The political programme of the current government set up the goal of dual training system development jointly with the Hungarian Chamber of Commerce and Industry;– the new act on VET (2011) describes the 3-year

trade school; strong focus on vocational education also allows students from grade 9 (age 15) get engaged in workplace-based apprenticeship agreements.

Some issues for discussion• dual-status (work & school) of the students / youth• dual-training• work-first vs. train-first approaches• changes in school age limits (increasing, decreasing?) • long-term vs. short-term personal & public good of

education• Consumption growth vs. GDP growth vs. new ways of

measuring development (e.g. OECD: Better Life Index)• PES (PES 2020) as a broker: one access point for services

and active measures but does not count as a provider
