This book highlights the increasing need for people who will be
working in professions such as teaching, health, engineering and
business management to have the skills for living and working in a
global society. Globalisation and the challenges resulting from
recent political events in Europe and North America have given rise
to a need for training and further and higher education programmes
to address the skills young people all need to effectively engage
in the current global society. Reviewing the range of theories and
debates surrounding skills for the twenty-first century, the author
suggests there is a need to directly address the real-world issues
of today and move beyond abstract concepts such as team work,
critical thinking and problem solving, as important as these
concepts are. The author proposes a new framework for global skills
using examples from international and national policy-makers and
evidence from further and higher educational programmes and
training courses. This pioneering yet practical book will be of
value to students and scholars of global education as well as
practitioners and policy makers.
