“…and be cheerful.”

Educational Context Devolution Lifelong learning Smart successful Scotland 50+% participation rate in HE FE delivers ~30% of HE (HNC/D) Scottish credit & qualifications framework Small country, large neighbour

Skills for Scotland (2007) “Sustainable economic growth” “Skills development contributes to economic development from which we believe other benefits flow such as social justice, stronger communities and more engaged citizens.”

Skills strategy - context Not Leitch No global shortage of HE graduates % with HE qualns > % with school qualns SSCs will not approve qualifications Key issues - skills utilisation and productivity

Productivity Organisational culture Individual autonomy/decision-making Management and HR practices Capital investment Risk and enterprise Workforce development “Our firms should be ambitious and demanding users of skills”

What will the future be like? “I think there is a world market for about five computers” Thomas J Watson, Chairman of IBM, 1943 “No matter what happens, the US Navy is not going to be caught napping” Frank Knox, Secretary of the US Navy, Dec “They couldn’t hit an elephant at this dist….” Last words of Gen. John B Sedgwick, 1864 (US Civil War)
