Institutions of higher education, among other duties and responsibilities, prepare students to enter the labour market. The aim of this paper is to determine the extent to which higher education prepares students for the foreordained transition from the educational system to the labour market. The research was conducted in the form of a survey by which the students of the final years of the professional undergraduate study Management and the graduate professional study Management at the College of Slavonski Brod carried out a self-assessment of their knowledge, skills and competencies. To present and elaborate prerequisites of education as preparation for the labour market, characteristics of the labour markets and employment policy measures as well as knowledge, skills and competencies that are required on today's labour market and for the purpose of conducting this research, the following scientific methods were used: analysis and synthesis, historical method, comparative method, induction and deduction and statistical method. Results of this research indicate; if the students in the final years, of both, the undergraduate study and the graduate study, have the necessary knowledge, skills and competences that employers require of their employees, then students will consider themselves more prepared to find a job. In that regard, it is expected that each higher education institution provides students with the necessary knowledge, skills and competences i.e. those that enable students to cope well with the challenges of the labour market.

Analysis And Synthesis

The purpose of this article is to review and compare ideas about the changes taking place in the process of Russian higher education modernization. The methods used are theoretical and empirical (an analysis and synthesis of literature, interviewing, observation and analysis of the educational process at a University). As a result of the research it is shown that the modernization is complicated by such factors as insufficient financing, poor infrastructure, psychological inability of the professorial staff to comply with the demands of a modernizing society, bureaucracy, and lack of university-business cooperation. The development of Russian corporate education may bring about considerable changes in the sphere of professional training and retraining. It may trigger off a change in the role of traditional institutes of professional development. Classical universities are no longer the only suppliers of the labour force. In the contemporary labour market, they compete with corporate educational institutions. It is concluded that traditional educational institutions and corporate educational institutions will be able to collaborate effectively in postindustrial Russia. Traditional universities should record, systematize and transmit universal cultural norms and values. They should preserve cultural heritage preventing it from disappearing. The improvement of university-business cooperation promotes government-business partnership, which is well illustrated by the Skolkovo Innovation Center.

Labour Market Outcomes

This study examined the factors that determined labour market outcomes for recently graduated, underrepresented college students. Chile’s largest higher education institution, which has a significant number of first-generation students from more deprived social sectors, was considered. A quantitative methodology was applied using logistic and multinomial regression models. Occupational status and income level were chosen as the dependent variables and five dimensions of independent variables were considered: sociodemographic attributes, human capital, academic characteristics, personality traits, and work environment. The results indicated that males, graduates who worked during their studies, heads of households, graduates from technical-professional high schools, those who completed their higher education studies in a timely manner, those who worked for larger private companies, and those who worked in a different geographical region to the one in which they studied had better labour market outcomes. Suggestions for institutional practices to help underrepresented students have successful career transitions are discussed.

The purpose of the article is an exposure of specific translation and interpretation of vocal creations of Baroque epoch for bandura, pointing of basic principles of transformation of original text in the context of synthesis of vocal and instrumental party. The research methodology consists in the application of the comparative method in music, a structural-historical method that allows outlining the stages of formation and functioning of specific features of the Baroque era in the present.  A special place takes methods of system analysis and synthesis for the study of the means of transformation in vocal-instrumental works of past centuries in the process of transformation and translation, as well as the method of generalization for the formation of conclusions.  This methodological approach helps to reveal the basic principles of translation of vocal and instrumental works of past centuries, in particular the Baroque era for voice accompanied with the bandura. The scientific novelty lies in the definition of the basic means (canons) of textural-timbre transformation, transformation of vocal-instrumental works of the Baroque period, on the example of the ancient aria «Solo per voi tra mille» from the cantata «Pastorella vaga bella» by G.F. Handel, which plays an important role in expanding the bandura vocalist's repertoire and enriches the potential of the Ukrainian national instrument. Conclusions. Thus, based on the above musical-theoretical analysis of the ancient aria «Solo per voi tra mille» from the cantata «Pastorella vaga bella» by G.F. Handel, we conclude that the translation of Baroque works for bandura and their inclusion in the pedagogical and concert repertoire bandura singer proves that the interpretation of works of past centuries on the bandura significantly expands the repertoire of the bandura singer and enriches the potential of the Ukrainian national instrument, revealing its timbre and technical capabilities, which deserves the attention of experts and requires further analysis and study.
