Abstract The article investigates the causes and consequences of the increased engagement of British universities with employability and skills initiatives. By employing case studies of six universities based in England, it asks whether the increased engagement between higher education and the labour market is driven by universities or business and whether such engagement has increased the diversity of the higher education sector. Findings suggest that the alignment between labour market needs and educational provision in universities is strongly mediated by the competitive environment within which higher education institutions have been operating since the late 1990s: the higher education market – not the labour market – is the key driver for universities to engage in employability and skills initiatives. The article also questions the assumption that ‘competition’ leads to ‘differentiation’ in higher education. Rather, isomorphic tendencies seem to prevail over differentiation in the context of a highly competitive higher education market.

The priority in this process is taken by a problem of reduction of the content of vocational training of marketing specialists in compliance with the requirements of labor market.

Topicality The relevance of the research of the economic interaction of the labor market and human resources in the healthcare sector is growing today, as it is necessary to involve all interested parties to effective interaction, to ensure the flexibility of higher and vocational education system by adjustment of labor training to the needs of employers. Aim and tasks. The goal of the study is to analyze the interaction of labor markets and education, identify the main disadvantages of this interaction and develop proposals to increase its productivity in the context of meeting the needs and interests of the subjects of these markets. Research results. The interaction of labor markets and educational services can be considered as coordinated behavior of entities engaged in economic activity in these markets in order to balance the supply and demand for skilled labor, create conditions for socio-economic growth of the national economy through the reproduction of human capital and increasing the competitiveness of the workforce. The economic interaction of the labor market and the human resources in the healthcare sector of Ukraine has been analyzed. An assessment of the competitiveness of the field of higher medical education and its institutions in the context of the economic interaction has been carried out. The level of the economic interaction of the educational services market and the labor market has been determined. The process of harmonization of the labor market of EU countries and Ukraine has been investigated. The main causes and disadvantages of the economic interaction of the educational services and the labor markets have been identified. The directions of improvement of the forecasting process of the labor market development as measures of improving the productivity of the studied processes are suggested. The approach to determining the competitive position of a higher medical education institution using a qualimetric approach has been considered, where educational and pedagogical work, personnel, scientific work and international activity are chosen as parameters. The main factor by the parameter of educational and pedagogical work is the medical work, which includes the following evaluation criteria: the number of university clinics, consultative and surgical activity of employees during the year, participation in the creation of clinical protocols, the availability of medical qualification among the teachers, technology acquisition of practical skills. According to the results of competitiveness assessment of higher education institutions, it is proposed to determine the following levels: critical (low); sufficient (average); high (higher than average); excellent (very high). Conclusion. The results of the study indicate an unsatisfactory level of the economic interaction of the labor market and the human resources in the healthcare sector in Ukraine, which is manifested in an imbalance in supply and demand for specialists in the relevant specialties, the low percentage of employed graduates of HEI, the high share of unemployed with higher education and the absence of direct connection between the amount of expenses on the education and the quality of educational services, the imperfection in the information support system and the poor state of forecasting processes in the main indicators of functioning and development of the labor market.

Abstract In the global world, changes that strike our educational system occur daily. In that matter, most of the traditional guidelines have been thrown away in order to strive towards new goals and methods, the external ones, which satisfy the continually changing labor market. The purpose of an individual in that kind of a system is to adapt in order to satisfy its needs while Socrates searches for happiness inside a man itself - a man possesses knowledge and wisdom for himself and his freedom, not others. With his method of dialectic speech, he seeks his truth and that of others and offers lots to think about. His teaching, which emphasizes love and desire for learning and real knowledge that leads to becoming an independent man, has been inspiring people for over twenty-five centuries, and it should be taken into consideration when thinking about youth, younger generations, and their future. In this paper, we are comparing and showing the differences in education today and the one in Socrates’ time. This paper highlights changes brought by the Bologna Declaration, but also the directionality in the labor market today, which makes the universities entrepreneurial centers. What does that mean for the knowledge economy we are striving for? Can we even state that we really are a knowledge society if we only aspire to knowledge that is dictated by the constantly changing labour market? We compare the knowledge to which we aspire with the knowledge which Socrates searches for and show the disadvantages of today’s educational system along the way. Here we offer Socrates’ ideas and opinions, which lead to possible progress towards genuine wisdom.

There is a constant increase in the graduates supply in the labour market in Albania. It seems that the expansion is going on a basis that risks distorting the distribution of students not in line with labor market needs. These expansions have been predicated on the assumption that more education is good for individuals and for society as a whole, not only in terms of economic outcomes like wages or employment, but also for a wide range of social outcomes like improved health and higher well-being. However, along with expansion of the system has come a range of new questions that have emerged as consequence of being many more tertiary graduates. For example, has the increase in tertiary graduates resulted in an oversupply of workers with tertiary qualifications, and thus a decline in the ‘value of a degree?’ If overeducation is a temporary disequilibrium or a permanent feature of economy; if the subject of degree affects the likelihood of being overeducated etc. are raised. This paper represents a research, aiming a total covering of the labour market measuring the overeducation rate for the graduates in Albania and drawing some take aways. The main contribution of the paper consists in providing estimations of graduate overeducation rate in national level. Some guidelines for possible recommendations for policies makers, relevant government agencies, higher education institutions, parents and other stakeholders involved in higher education sector in Albania, are also provided.

The paper analyzes the correlation between supply and demand for skilled labour on the rural labour market. The paper defines skilled workers as those having tertiary professional education. The empirical basis for the research is constituted by the Labour Force Survey data between 2005 and 2015. It has been proved that in this period the supply of the skilled labour was steadily on the increase that was determined by the growth of both the number and share of people with higher education. The demand for the skilled labour of rural workers showed slower growth rates that resulted in an increasing gap between supply and demand. The research proves that education and qualification of rural workers are being underutilized, and the scale of education-occupation mismatch has been rather big. The most obvious contradiction between education underutilization and its non-purpose use - when people do not work in accordance with their specialization - refer to the workers with technical and agricultural training.
