The value judgments about medicine are contributed to by the public image. Formerly this has been one of a devoted, caring, self-sacrificing, somewhat unworldly group of people, dedicated to their work for the suffering and diseased. But the doctors are not separate from society and they are affected by its values. These have been adopted by the profession so that it is coming to be seen as no worse and no better than any other group of comparable education and training. Its status has diminished and this has called into question its compensation at a high level. Status cannot be maintained when its base has been eroded.

Рассматриваются задачи, которые встают перед государством при разработке сопоставимых индикаторов оценки эффективности системы среднего профессионального образования. Показана проблема сопоставимости различных показателей и их влияние на оценку среднего профессионального образования. Проанализированы перспективы разработки сопоставимых индикаторов для понимания степени, в которой образовательная система обеспечивает максимально возможную отдачу при минимально возможном вкладе, а именно показывает высокий уровень эффективности системы. Использовались общенаучные методы познания: аналитический метод, конкретизации теоретических знаний, метод экспертных оценок, обобщение. Результаты исследования отражают возможность дополнения мониторинга качества подготовки кадров в образовательных организациях, реализующих образовательные программы среднего профессионального образования сопоставимыми индикаторами оценки технического и профессионального образования и обучения по версии UNESCO для оценки эффективности системы СПО России. The tasks that the state faces when developing comparable indicators for assessment effectiveness of the vocational education and training are considered. The influence of various indicators on the assessment of the effectiveness of vocational education and training system is shown. The prospects of developing comparable indicators for understanding the degree to which the educational system provides the maximum possible return with the minimum possible contribution, namely, it shows a high level of system efficiency, are analyzed. General scientific methods of cognition, analytical method, concretization of theoretical knowledge, method of expert assessments, terminological analysis, generalization were used. The results of the study reflect the possibility of supplementing the monitoring of the quality of personnel training in educational organizations implementing educational programs of vocational education and training system with comparable indicators for evaluating technical and vocational education and training according to the UNESCO version to assess the effectiveness of the Russian VET system.

The past year of surgical education and training has been characterised with transformations of curricula, recruitment, regulation and organisational structures. As part of the organisational structure of the postgraduate deaneries in England, Wales and Northern Ireland, schools of surgery have been established or are emerging and are the means of delivery of the new training systems. In Scotland a different organisational structure has emerged with similar purpose, a surgical specialties training board. The establishment of these schools has been varied based on existing local training committee structures and the needs and funds of the deanery. At their heart is high-level deanery and College collaboration enabling the delivery of high-quality education and training programmes in a coordinated manner by local surgeons.

<p>This thesis assesses the impact of the 1989 skill ecosystem reform, whereby New Zealand initiated a comprehensive reform of its skill ecosystem. The reforms radically transformed the education and training system and were driven primarily by the approval of the Education Act 1989 and the Industry Training Act 1992 and their amendments. For this thesis, the reform ended in 2020 with the approval of the Education and Training Act 2020. The reforms were part of a broader political transformation in New Zealand that ended up embarking on market policies to increase its productivity. Education and training were identified as a necessary condition to achieve that goal. New Zealand’s skill ecosystem has its foundations in the strong system built in the country since the arrival of the first settlers, but that had slowed its dynamism in the 1970s, with enrollment rates lagging behind comparable countries and concerns about the ability of the skill ecosystem to respond to current and future skill needs. The reform decentralized the education system at the primary / secondary and post-secondary levels but created an institution, the New Zealand Qualification Authority (NZQA) that should allow students and trainees a seamless navigation across it. The reform had a strong involvement of the private sector. To evaluate the impact of the reform, the thesis faces several challenges: there is no adequate counterfactual, the design is continually changing, and the country experienced a series of international shocks during its implementation. To address these challenges, the thesis presents a comprehensive set of indicators to evaluate the reform's outputs and outcomes at different levels. In terms of outputs, which include the reform, enrollment in education and training, participation rates increased. In terms of outcomes, which include indirect and behavioural changes, the measures are mixed. At the end of the reform, the ease of finding high-level skills in New Zealand is similar to its long-term trend despite the more sophisticated economic structure, albeit with significant differences by firm size and industries. And the ease is lower than in comparison countries, raising questions about whether that level could change given the small size and remoteness of New Zealand's economy.</p>

This paper articulates debates surrounding the concept of Continuous Assessment (CA) in South African schools. Although the research was focused on schools in this democratic country, it became evident from the findings that assessment is still a challenge besetting both General Education and Training (GET)and Further Education and Training Bands (FET) worldwide. One of the fundamental reasons for the previous national disenchantment with regard to summative assessment has been the gross inequities that have resulted from inferences based solely on final examinations. In the post apartheid era, the Department of Education made it compulsory that schools turned to CA that is backed by criterion-referenced standards. CA has been heralded as the solution to a host of education ills, including the apparent gap in performance between students of various political and religious backgrounds.

In Western Australia (WA), similar to practices elsewhere, there has been a strong focus on the need for schools to reconsider their practices to increase opportunities for more equitable and inclusive access for all children. Subsequent to a major review of service provision for students with disabilities in WA (Department of Education and Training, 2004), a Building Inclusive Schools initiative is being implemented in all Government schools (Department of Education and Training, 2003). This paper explores how, following a trial inclusive program, one middle school is utilizing this initiative to further its own inclusive practices. To support this review a collaborative partnership has been established between the school and a university to provide an avenue for deliberate reflection on the processes employed to develop the school’s vision of Education For All by Incorporating Diversity. A model on sustaining education for all is identified and the impact of government directives is investigated. Consideration is given to the likely impact on the school of systemic procedures being developed to support the progress of the Building Inclusive Schools initiative.
