Increasingly, individuals are using more blended, hybrid, and online deliver formats in education and training. Although research exists about how the physical and social environment impact learning and training in traditional face-to-face settings, we have limited knowledge about how the environment affects learners when they are interacting with technology in their learning situations. In particular, concerns arise about levels of engagement, whether learning is enhanced, the impact or helpfulness of robotics, and how the social dynamics change. These five panelists bring expertise in education at the undergraduate and graduate levels, training within industry and the military, and the use of various teaching and training methods. The panelists will present their perspectives to several questions relative to how the environment can (or cannot) accommodate enhanced learning in education and training when technology is involved. Ample time will remain for audience participation.

The main objectives of the chapter are to evaluate the impact of the tsunami of big data, business analytics, and technology on the delivery and diffusion of knowledge around the world through the use of Internet-of-things and to design future academic education and training programs. Global and local trends are analyzed to evaluate the impact of the digital tsunami on the delivery and diffusion of knowledge; to identify the shortage of critical skills, drivers of challenges, hot skills in demand, and salaries in big data/business analytics; to highlight obstacles to make informed decisions. CAM education framework is proposed to design customized higher education and training programs to meet current shortage and future generation with the relevant and rigorous skills to boost productivity growth and to impact society and professional domains in the digital economy. Finally, new ideas on how governments, academic institutions, technology companies, and professional employers can work together to reform the traditional education value chain and integrate the “massive open online courses” to achieve mass diffusion of knowledge, to transform people from loyalty to parties, clergies, and dictatorships to society's loyalty, and to develop a culture of shared-value in a move towards a smarter and fairer planet in the 21st century.

The purpose of this study was to determine the level of influence of the implementation of existing education and training programs on the work productivity of civil servants. Based on the results of data processing, it is known that the elements of the implementation of education and training programs that must be considered and improved are as follows: Training Materials, Non-Formal Education, Training Schedules, Instructor Hospitality, Training Variations, Training Methods, and Training Guidebooks. While the elements of implementing education and training programs that must be maintained are as follows: Formal Education, Instructor Skills, Instructor Ability, Training Infrastructure Facilities, Training Curriculum, Training Evaluation. The implementation of education and training programs affects the work productivity of civil servants and the effect of the implementation of training programs is more dominant, this is so because the implementation of training programs is more often done and more applicable even though it still seems theoretical in the work of civil servants. Therefore an appropriate education and training program will have an impact on increasing the productivity of its employees.

Although the association between unemployment and offending is well established, relatively little is known about the impact of vocational education and training programs on re-offending, with much of the previous work in this area failing to control for, or correct, selection bias. This article reports the findings of a systematic review, which considers the findings of only those studies that have used experimental or quasi-experimental designs to evaluate vocational training and employment program outcomes for adult offenders. The analysis identifies key features, based on these studies, of those programs associated with the best outcomes and recommends selection criteria for those who are most likely to benefit from prison vocational education and training.
