SENAI SENAC System S Employers Association SENAR SEBRAE Ministry of Labour SENAT TVET Invisible Training System Technical Secondary Schools Ministry of Education 2 year post-secondary
History of System S 1942: SENAI is born: • Employers own and operate • Funded on 1% on payroll • Budget predictability • Swiss-German DNA, to train workers • Methodical series • In practice, independent from Labour Ministry
Those who hire workers own the system: good targeting • SENAI on top of World Skills Compet. • Criteria are economic not social • As good as the employers' associations • Other "S" more heterogeneous • Train around 7 million/year, spend 4 million dollars
Trains pre-serviceand upgrade but not the unemployed (with their $) • Very little to the informal workers (except SEBRAE) • Considerable R&D projects sold to enterprises • Strong esprit de corps, have to defend from the left
Apprenticeship killed by excess protection to apprentices • Gender: women have more education except in Ph.Ds and blue collar occupation • Regional disparities: less than in education
The invisible training sector • Not in the statistics for enrollment or expenditures • Does not exist legally • Controlled by supply and demand • More than 40 million enrollment • 20 billion expenditures, 5% of GDP • Plays important roles
The Ministry of Education and the technical schools • Technical schools: try to do to much, unstable equilibrium • Heavier work load than plain secondary (2400 h + 1000 hours) • 100 odd federal schools: too elitist and preparing for competitive universities
"Academic drift". Most graduates do not follow trades taught • Not market driven • Some do excellent R&D
Growth in private sector • Growth lead by for-profit proprietary institutions • Public schools too expensive • --> private schools growing with two digits, not as good but adequate • Total enrolment still less than 10% of secondary
The Ministry of Education and the post-secondary schools • Considering small higher education enrollment took too long to grow • 13% of higher education enrollment but growing fast • Private sector growing faster, proprietary colleges investing
