Universalių kompetencijų svarba įsidarbinimui

LTVis plačiau diskutuojama, kad universalios kompetencijos (angl. generic competence) įsidarbinant yra lygiagrečiai svarbios moksliniam žinojimui. Ugdymas ateičiai, o ir darbo rinka, kalba apie tokių kompetencijų lavinimą, kurių negebės spręsti dirbtinis intelektas. Straipsnyje atlikta kokybinė darbo skelbimų turinio analizė, siekiant išsiaiškinti universalių kompetencijų pobūdį ir poreikį įsidarbinant. Buvo pasirinkta informacinių technologijų (toliau straipsnyje IT) sritis, išanalizuota 100 (n=100) darbo skelbimų IT srityje, skelbiamų Lietuvos darbo rinkai populiariose įsidarbinimo svetainėse. Tyrimo rezultatai atskleidė, kad šiandien rinkai reikalingas darbuotojas, gebantis sklandžiai komunikuoti raštu ir žodžiu, dirbti komandoje ir savarankiškai, į iškilusią problemą pažvelgti nestandartiškai bei įvairiais aspektais galimai įgyja konkurencinį pranašumą. Reikšminiai žodžiai: universalios kompetencijos, darbo rinka, įsidarbinimas. [Iš leidinio]

The content analysis of job advertisements is used to identify a wide range of employability skills needed for today‘s market. The research identified 281 key terms for personal attributes mentioned in the job advertisements and 15 key terms for generic skills after making the skills groups according to Tuning methodology.The results were calculated according to frequency occurence of each skill within the total amount of personal attributes mentioned in the job advertisements and with paying attention to a frequency occurence of a single trait within 100 job advertisements. The study results showed that an individual with such skills as an ability to communicate fluently, including verbal and written skills, ability to team up and work individually, to solve problems creatively undoubtedly gains a competitive edge in the labour market. Keeping in mind the proposals displayed in the programme Horizon 2020 as an implication for instruction the bigger attention should be paid to human and social sciences in educating future specialists for any market.
