contents Skills for green jobs: gearing up education and training for green growth Christine Hofmann Olga Strietska-Ilina Skills development is critical to unlocking the employment potential of green growth. To avoid future skill shortages, countries need to devise strategies based on well-informed policy decisions, social dialogue and co-ordination among ministries and between employers and training providers. Co-ordination between skills and environmental policies, mainstreaming environmental content across all training programmes, as well as designing specific courses for new or changing occupations are important building blocks for a coherent strategy to gear up education and training for greener jobs. This contribution draws on findings from the book Skills for Green Jobs. A Global View, arising from an ILO/Cedefop collaboration, and two sector studies on renewable energy and green building as well as a comparative analysis of methods of skills identification, resulting from a joint project between the ILO and the European Commission OECD 10.1787/9789264208704-9-en DOI https://doi.org/10.1787/9789264208704-9-en publication.bookChapter
