The next education whammy
A study released by the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) – this is an “international” organization so it’s “good” – slapped around Germany’s education system again because it apparently doesn’t produce enough university and high school graduates. These numbers won’t meet “the growing demands” posed by the international labor market, the study says. I don’t get that part because all companies do around here these days is let people go. But they did say international, I guess, so maybe jobs will be opening up soon in Poland or something.
The report claims that although the percentage of young natives obtaining a degree may have risen from 19.3 per cent to 20.6 per cent between 2000 and 2004, this is still well below the OECD average of 34.8 percent. Of course that 34.8 percent if this 34.8 percent won’t find a job because all companies do these days is let people go is another story but here I go repeating myself again.
The German government sees the danger and is working feverishly to reform the German education system from the ground up.
Ha, ha, just a little test to see if you were still reading this.

Bildung ist das Schlüsselwort. Und dabei bleibt es.

Whatever slows down the german economy at the moment, it´s not the number of graduates queuing up outside of it. (Comment this)
