Effects of Job Market Demand on Higher Education in Pakistan
The research report also includes officials' recommendations, such as universities taking the lead in engaging with industry to reconcile education and training in a mutually beneficial manner in order to avoid the grim prospect of unemployment. This would also serve as a two-way information channel, with students learning about possible employers and their needs and companies learning about their future employees' attributes. It's also possible that the value of social and political connections in acquiring work will be reduced. Across all age groups, the father's educational level is favorably and significantly related to the children's educational success.Except in the case of students, where the low educational group showed the predicted sign, the mother's educational level was less essential.Employees and self-employed people are surprised by the indicators in the medium educational category. The research report also offers policymakers options to avoid the grim future of unemployment, such as colleges taking the lead in collaborating with industry to reconcile education and training in a mutually beneficial manner. This would also serve as a two-way information channel, with students learning about potential employers and their requirements and employers learning about the characteristics of their future employees. It's also possible that the value of social and political connections in acquiring work will decline.
