An assessment of international trends in occupational forecasting and skills research: how does Northern Ireland compare?
This report assesses current international practice in skills planning and forecasting. Amongst the issues considered here is the rationale behind skills forecasting studies and the extent to which they are a consequence of market failures, the methodologies they employ and the extent to which they are utilised by policy makers. The report will then go on to consider how the [Northern Ireland] NI approach sits within the international context and propose some recommendations with respect to the most appropriate framework for skills planning policy within the region.
