Through 25 chapters authored by some of the leading researchers in the field, this extensive overview outlines the contextual factors driving human resources development in South Africa. A key theme throughout the volume is the importance of a multifaceted skills-development strategy operating at three levels. The first entails high-skills policies aimed at expanding export-oriented manufacturing production and services provision, particularly in new globally competitive niche areas. The second level relates to the ongoing need for intermediate skills, as is evidenced by the shortage of skilled artisans and technologists. Finally, the provision of basic, entry-level skills is important in view of the urgent need for large-scale job-creation schemes to ameliorate high levels of unemployment and despondency, especially among youth. Together with its companion data warehouse, this is an essential, user-friendly resource for policy makers, planners, managers, and educators at national and institutional levels.
