The author analyzes how the modern education system contributes to the formation of socio-economically determined choice of higher education, where the latter includes a decision on continue studying, choosing a university and specialty.The functioning of the higher education system is analyzed in the context of the interconnections of education, the labor market and family resources, which reflect the movement of human capital and current trends in social mobility in Central Asia, as exemplified by Kazakhstan.The article presents data from a study conducted among young professionals aged 21 to 29 years with a different level of education. The sample represents the Republic of Kazakhstan and amounts to 1000 respondents. The survey was conducted using the technique of personal formalized interviews at the respondents’ work place.The data obtained indicate that the expansion of accessibility of higher education in Kazakhstan is accompanied by its stratification, which is projected in the inequality in the labor market for young people with a different «background» of family capital. This trend is hidden. The family’s resource capital affects the range of choice of educational trajectory (level of education, university, specialty), in the future, the level of education and prestige of a young specialist’s university determine career opportunities.

The article is aimed at identifying the problems of the regional labor market and the market of educational services in order to improve the system of youth employment. The paper identifies the role of education as the most important institution for the formation of the internal socio-economic potential of the territory and the development of the local community. The relevance of the problem for the Irkutsk region lies in the imbalance of supply and demand of young professionals - generation Z - in the conditions of the resource nature of the economy. The study confirmed that young people aged 20-24 are the most vulnerable in the regional labor market. The main results of the work are as follows: 1) there is no effective interaction of market participants with the changed labor claims of modern youth; 2) educational services of the Irkutsk region are not relevant to the regional labor market. Uncertainty in the interaction of market actors does not give a clear understanding of the prospects for the formation of labor skills and activates the migration of young people. As a result, the territorial labor market lacks human and educational potential, and the return on the regional structure of the resource economy does not contribute to the transformation of potential into capital. The study emphasizes that the realization of the potential of the population and the activation of territorial unification cannot be effective without a clear understanding of the vector of development of the higher education system. It is necessary to supplement the regulatory and strategic documents of the region with reasonable indicators of employment of university graduates. The results obtained can be used by regional authorities, higher education, science and business structures in order to effectively interact the territorial markets of educational services and labor.

In this regard, new competencies of specialists are in demand. Purpose: The purpose of this study was to establish the impact of the fourth industrial revolution on the education system and the development of skills and thinking for learning. Methods: When conducting scientific research, economic and statistical methods were used. These methods were also used in comparative analysis, as well as in assessing data and indicators of the higher education system, taking into account the impact of the fourth industrial revolution. The analytical method was used to consider the characteristics and factors influencing the development of skills and thinking for learning in modern conditions. The abstract-logical method is used to identify problems affecting the development of the labor market under the influence of digital technologies. Results and their value: The result of the study is that conclusions are drawn about the upcoming changes. Automation and digitalization are likely to lead to significant unemployment in most countries, so adaptation innovation policies are needed to help offset unemployment due to digitalization. Governments need to invest heavily in higher education as an economic development tool for their citizens. Lifelong learning should be identified as a critical element of success in the era of the fourth industrial revolution.

Rising tuition fees in England have been accompanied by a policy mandate for universities to widen participation by attracting students from socio-economically disadvantaged backgrounds. This article focuses on one such group of high achieving students and their responses to rising tuition fees within the context of their participation in an outreach scheme at a research-intensive university in the UK. Our findings suggest that rather than being deterred from attending university as a result of fee increases, these young people demonstrated a detailed and fairly sophisticated understanding of higher education provision as a stratified and marketised system and justified fees within a discourse of ‘private good.’ Our analysis situates their ‘risk’ responses within the discursive tensions of the fees/widening participation mandate. We suggest that this tension highlights an intensified commodification of the relationship between higher education institutions and potential students from disadvantaged backgrounds in which widening participation agendas have shifted towards recruitment exercises. We argue that an ongoing effect of this shift has resulted in increased instrumentalism and a narrowing of choices for young people faced with the task of seeking out ‘value for money’ in their degrees whilst concurrently engaging in a number of personalised strategies aimed at compensating for social disadvantage in a system beset by structural inequalities.

Система высшего образования развивается не в изоляции. Она находится в непосредственной зависимости от школьной системы и от рынка труда. С одной стороны, образовательные результаты, полученные в университете, зависят от уровня знаний и навыков, которые получили студенты на предыдущем этапе образования, с другой стороны, ожидаемое высокое качество жизни, которое является ключевой мотивацией для поступления в вуз для большинства населения, определяется состоянием и структурой рынка труда. Именно наличие спроса на продуктивную рабочую силу определяет результативность системы высшего образования. The higher education system does not develop in isolation. It is directly dependent on the school system and the labor market. On the one hand, the educational results obtained at the University depend on the level of knowledge and skills that students received at the previous stage of education, on the other hand, the expected high quality of life, which is a key motivation for entering the University for the majority of the population, is determined by the state and structure of the labor market. It is the demand for productive labor that determines the effectiveness of the higher education system.

Each country in the world has its own individual approaches to the quality assurance system of higher education, so the quality of educational services in each country is different. The developing countries should be guided by the standards and recommendations put forward by the world’s leading countries in the field of the assurance system of higher education in order to improve the quality of education services. The purpose of the scientific investigation is to formulate the objectives and analyze the practical aspects of functioning of the quality assurance system of higher education. In the study’s framework of the practical aspects of the higher education’s quality in European Union’s countries, the methods of general analysis have been used, including comparison and grouping; at the same time, the presentation of statistics is also demonstrated by graphical methods.

Stable reproduction of resources in the labor market, as well as their  adaptation to current trends, largely depend on the awareness  of potential employees of their capabilities and prospects. Such views are formed already at the initial stages of mastering the  profession - in obtaining higher education. These representations are  an important indicator especially in the context of the  transformation of the higher education system, in particular in  connection with the updated GEF HE. In this article, the authors  consider approaches to studying the youth labor market and focus  their attention on issues of professional self-determination and  gaining experience in labor activity. Based on the focus group study,  the authors disclose the expectations and self-assessments of  students regarding their professional prospects in the labor market. Researchers identify specific features of selfassessment of  professional perspectives depending on the course of study, on the  level of professional education and other factors. As it turned out,  undergrads tend to assess the degree of their readiness to enter the  labor market rather high, but nevertheless feel undefined. According  to the students, frequent short-term internships in specific  enterprises could increase their confidence and expand the prospects  for successful employment. At the same time, students  are more focused on working in specific organizations than actually  on professional self-actualization.
