Abstract

This paper expresses some conceptual thoughts based on ongoing research, which analyses the incidence of technological changes on the work world, which demand, in turn, new skills from workers and the need to develop public policies to regulate them. For this reason, this research is centred around public policies for Vocational Training (FP) devised by the Education and Labour ministries, from the perspective of trade unions, technical and public officials related to employment and FP policies; and the electrical, automotive and construction industry sectors. The period between 2003-2015 is selected for analysis in view of the diversity of VET policies developed after the 2001 crisis. Additionally, a previous line of research is furthered, on the relationship between work and education, on the axes of work, employment and professional training.
