00:01En la Europa, 40% de los empleados
00:04dicen que no pueden encontrar trabajadores con las habilidades correctas para llenar sus vacaciones.
00:09Así que aquí en Portugal, el país está haciendo un empujo
00:12para promover educación vocacional y entrenamiento.
00:15Es lo que realmente me gusta.
00:17Estar aquí a jugar y poner la mano en la masa, es lo que realmente me gusta.
00:21Creo que con la práctica que adquirimos,
00:23será fácil me empregar.
00:34Los estudiantes de esta escuela están aprendiendo habilidades que están en demanda en el mercado de trabajo.
00:40Pero sabemos que el trabajo está cambiando rápidamente,
00:43con la llegada de la A.I., las transacciones digitales y verde.
00:46Entonces, ¿cómo está la educación vocacional y entrenamiento adaptando a este nuevo desafío?
00:58Aquí en la Sior School en Famalikau,
01:01más de 400 estudiantes están aprendiendo todo
01:03de cómo weld metal,
01:05a cómo medir el peso.
01:07Ellos creen que sus cursos son perfectamente adaptados a la sociedad.
01:11La población de la población agente necesitan pharmacistas.
01:15La economía digitales,
01:17necesitan electricianes y CNC programas.
01:19Y cuando se trata de A.I.,
01:21nadie aquí se preocupa que un robot va a tomar su trabajo.
01:25Yo creo que los robots y la inteligencia artificial nunca van a conseguir sustituir.
01:29Por más que ellos puedan encontrar el problema,
01:33ellos nunca van a conseguir explicar
01:34a los clientes cómo es que el problema surgió,
01:38cómo es que ellos pueden resolver el problema.
01:40La inteligencia artificial sirve, sí, como una herramienta.
01:44Yo, por ejemplo, utilizo muchas veces
01:45para adquirir un vocabulario más técnico y así,
01:49pero en ningún momento creo que va a sustituir el aconselamiento farmacéutico.
01:53Portugal's push for skills is nationwide.
01:57The government wants 55% of secondary school students
02:00to be enrolled in vocational education and training by 2030,
02:04and nearly 1.5 billion euros from the European Social Fund Plus
02:08will go to support that vocational training
02:10via Portugal's Pessoas 2030 economic program.
02:15The director of this school regularly meets employers
02:18to be sure that training courses match the skills they require now and in the future.
02:23And he also stresses that their students should learn to be good employees,
02:27and that requires a whole different set of skills.
02:30Nosotros tenemos que olhar para la formación, una formación integral de un individuo.
02:35Y un joven o un adulto, que sea, que tenga las soft skills que hoy el mercado necesita,
02:43de ser creativo, cumplidor, competente, comunicador, etc.
02:47Todas estas competencias,
02:49ellas son transversales en cualquier actividad profesional.
02:53Despite the funding efforts, European society as a whole sends mixed messages about vocational training.
03:00According to a recent Eurobarometer survey,
03:03only half of Europeans would actually recommend vocational education and training to young people,
03:09while at the same time 85% of Europeans agree that such training provides relevant skills for much-in-demand
03:16jobs.
03:18Many governments would like to encourage students to learn valuable hands-on skills.
03:23So what kinds of policies are needed to better promote vocational training?
03:31Here at the University of Porto School of Economics and Management,
03:35we met up with Professor Aurora Teixeira.
03:37She argues for higher salaries for new recruits and more investment in innovation within companies,
03:43and so the governments need to consider the wider economic context.
03:48The educational policy has to be an educational policy combined with a industrial policy,
03:55with a company policy.
03:57The professional training is a necessary condition
03:59so that the country is more competitive and the companies are more competitive.
04:04One of the leading employers in this region of Portugal is German camera and optics company Leica.
04:10They hired former SEOR student Antonio Cruz as a maintenance electrician at age 18.
04:16Now, four years later, he says school might be over, but the learning continues.
04:20What I would like to learn more is, perhaps, about building electricity,
04:29but also focus on the issue of machines.
04:34We've also started with robotics.
04:36And this will make a lot of difference for us.
04:43As governments seek to promote vocational education and training more widely,
04:48the future is promising for these students,
04:50with three-quarters of trainees at this school finding work as soon as they finish their studies.
04:55Thanks.
04:55Thanks.
04:56Thanks.
04:57Thanks.
04:58Thanks.
