Скачать или смотреть IDB Cities Network Webinar: Workforce Training in Cities

In Latin America and the Caribbean, at least 40% of companies report difficulties in finding workers with the right skills. This is due to the fact that over 50% of workers lack basic skills, only 16% access tertiary education, and, as a result, 40% of the labor force is employed in low-productivity sectors.

This webinar, organized by the IDB Cities Network, is part of the series More Productive and Safer Cities in Latin America and the Caribbean, and explores the role of local governments in generating concrete solutions to better connect the supply of talent with local market demand.

The session features the experiences of Cali and Bogotá, in Colombia, where results-based payment models have proven to be innovative mechanisms for workforce training and job placement. Learn more at: https://www.iadb.org/en/who-we-are/to...
