Economic and social outcomes of guidance
Term
Economic and social outcomes of guidance
Definition
Guidance has social and economic outcomes: in particular, improving the efficiency and effectiveness of education, training and the labour market through its contribution to reducing drop-out, preventing skill mismatches, increasing job tenure and boosting productivity; and also addressing social equity and social inclusion.
Comment
Economic and social outcomes are usually considered together as the two outcomes are closely linked.
See separate definitions of ‘Guidance outcomes’, ‘Learning outcomes of guidance’ and the definition of ‘Outcome (quality)’.
