Abstract:
This research is made with a theoretical-methodological approach from the perspective of the consumer. It is related to the question of the prerequisites and prospects
for the digital ecosystem of continuous educational training formation. The new
educational ecosystem brings together the interests of the labour market and professional
education using a network of educational and professional platforms (online
hubs), which is built upon a “hybrid” infrastructure of traditional and platform digital
media, taking into account the new economic realities. The continuous vocational trainings
focus on persons of working age, young people, and are aimed at maintaining employment
and reducing the risks of unemployment at the regional level.
The establishment of a digital ecosystem of continuous vocational training to form outpacing
competences can compensate for the gap between low labour productivity and
outpacing budget income indexation, low staff rotation, low incomes of young workers
and lack of competitive additional vocational training programmes. This could introduce
young employable persons to the labour market as the main producers of common (regional)
income.
The ideas and conclusions are based on international advanced practices and national educational
strategies of designing a model of a new educational ecosystem.
