Title: The labour force participation of Australian mature-aged men : the role of spousal participation.

Abstract: This paper investigates the labour force participation decisions made from 2001 to 2011 by older Australian couples. It focuses on couples with a mature-aged husband and estimates the interdependence of the labour force participation decision of the couple using data from the Household, Income and Labour Dynamics in Australia (HILDA) Survey. The paper finds evidence that the employment of wives encourages the employment of their mature aged husbands. The paper estimates that the increased participation of married women in the labour force between 2002 and 2011 has been responsible for about a four-percentage-point increase in the participation of their mature-aged husbands. This paper makes some contributions to the present literature. First, it uses a broad array of advanced econometric methods and shows how these can be crucial for the correct understanding of the evidence. Second, it provides supportive arguments to caution against the use of analysis that ignores the interdependence of the decisions of wives and husbands. Third, the paper offers novel evidence on the macroeconomic development of employment rates in Australia: the positive impact exerted by increasing female employment rates on male employment rates, which shed new light on the complementarity between male and female employment.

Abstract: Industry and academia are both undergoing major transformations in response to global economic integration, population growth, occupational mobility and technological advances. These intersecting factors necessitate the need and capacity to respond to such circumstantial changes in resourceful, flexible and resilient ways. Funded by an Office for Learning and Teaching (OLT) Seed Grant in 2012, the project has investigated the experiences of industry professionals making the move to academia and how they have responded to multiple professional and personal challenges associated with this trans-sector movement. This final report, which summarises the project, is structured into four parts: (1) an introduction to the project and surrounding issues faced by practitioner-academics; (2) recommendations to industry professionals considering a career change to academia; (3) the project’s outcomes and deliverables.

<b>ISBN:</b> 9789462092600 (ebook)<br />Abstract: This book provides a unique insight into the learning experiences of career change professionals in teacher education. Many studies have provided a brief glimpse into the experiences of people making a career change into teaching, but this book offers an in-depth analysis of the day to day struggles and triumphs of a small group of career change students studying teacher education in Australia. This study locates teacher professional learning within a sociocultural research paradigm, highlighting the importance of social, cultural and institutional contexts in learning. Learning to become a teacher is not merely the acquisition of a set of technical skills and propositional knowledge, but a far more complex personal struggle to construct a new professional identity. This book uncovers some of the trials, tribulations and joys of becoming a teacher for those who have already worked in other careers. It examines the impact of previous career experiences on the construction of a new professional identity as a teacher. This process is discussed using the conceptual framework of learning within communities of practice. Firstly, a broad-brush picture is presented through analysis and discussion of extensive quantitative data obtained via an on-line survey, after which a small group of survey respondents provide a more nuanced exploration of their experiences as student teachers. This is followed by three case studies that delve more deeply into the experiences, frustrations and joys of being an 'expert novice' in teacher education. These case studies examine the stories of three career changers who provide personal insights into what it is like to be an experienced professional embarking on a new journey as a novice student teacher.

Abstract: Encouraging older workers to stay in the workforce has become a policy priority. At the same time, the life expectancy of Australians has increased dramatically over the past several decades, effectively inserting a new stage in the life course, often called the 'third age'. This report explores the possibility of using that third age to embark on an encore career, a concept originating in the United States. The author then focuses on the role the VET sector might play in developing encore careers in Australia.

Abstract: Skill shortages in the trades are of growing concern as Australian industry emerges from the Global Financial Crisis. Although such shortages are often attributed to the inability of the training system to supply enough skilled tradespersons, they are just as much affected by the rate at which individuals leave their occupations. In this paper, using professional occupations as comparators, the authors investigate attrition in the trades and the extent to which this is affected by good or bad economic times. They also ponder the question of whether a trade is a good start to a career by tracking the occupational destination of those who exit their trades. [Author abstract]

So how do modern work and employment arrangements restructure individual careers and what is required of individuals in order to manage career transitions successfully over time? This empirical study analyses how labour-market trends, organizational change and the subjective work orientations of individuals interact. The author's detailed assessment is based on a comparison of the structural contexts, work orientations and employment histories of nurses and ICT technicians in Germany and the UK. [Back cover, ed]

Abstract: In the year to February 2002, one in every five of the 9.8 million people who worked in Australia experienced at least one job separation. This paper looks at the determinants of job separation within a stayer/mover framework using individual-level data for Australia. Conditional on job separation the paper also investigates the determinants of job-to-job turnover (differentiated by occupation) and job-to-joblessness turnover (unemployment and exit from the labour force). The results show the importance of the normal demographic variables (age, gender, immigrant status and place of residence) but also qualifications and other labour market variables (hours of work, reason for job separation) for explaining turnover behaviour.

In what ways do policies and practices mediate the construction of 'a professional' among current and future educators? How do communal spaces shape the professional learning of educators? What are the tensions that emerge in the construction of professional identity through professional learning? As a whole, all chapters provide insight into the dynamic naturr of 'professional becoming'. [Publisher]

Published: Canberra : DEST : 2007
Abstract: The report surmises that targeted initiatives do encourage and support career change. Targeted initiatives appear to be effective at enabling education authorities to work with universities to prioritise recruitment around specific areas of need. The research also found that career change programs are generally effective in delivering on their stated objectives to appoint teachers to difficult to staff locations and to address shortages in specialisations across the curriculum. The report recommends that any future career change initiatives be designed in consultation with registration/accreditation bodies and education providers, to ensure that courses meet the needs of all parties.

Abstract: This paper was written in response to an invitation from the Victorian Department of Education and Training to undertake a targeted review of effective teaching recruitment strategies. It provides a ‘snapshot’ of what is happening in other States and Territories and in selected countries overseas. The main focus of the review is on the kinds of strategies that different educational jurisdictions have used to overcome teacher supply problems. The most effective approaches appear to be those that have been implemented as part of a global strategy that looks not simply at the immediate problem but at ways of making teaching an attractive profession in the long-term.

<b>ISBN:</b> 1740961226 (web ed)<br />Abstract: This study examines how the occupational structure of the Australian labour market has evolved over recent years, and how individuals have fared in the process. Underlying aggregate- level change are tens of thousands of stories of individuals coping with adjustment: stories of young people deciding whether to continue their education and training beyond schooling, of mothers wanting to re-start their career after some years where it has been on hold, and of older people receiving redundancy notices and scouring job advertisements asking for skills they don't have. The study uses a statistical approach to interpret these stories and detect the underlying factors which explain change and the paths people have followed, which is comprised of an examination of changes in the occupational composition of the labour market between 1986 and 2001, as well as a retrospective investigation of the factors that enabled some individuals to find themsleves working in 1997 in jobs that might be categorised as 'knowledge work'. The report also investigates the growth of knowledge work and the knowledge society. [Executive summary, ed]

Author(s): Thomas, C. | Australia. Dept of Employment, Education and Training (DEET). Economic Div
Published: Canberra : Aust Govt Pub Service : Sept 1988
Abstract: This report examines the extent to which people leave the professions and paraprofessions for which they were trained. The report is based on 1981 Census data which allows calculations of separation rates of people leaving their professions for a wide range of occupations. The report shows that, in general, wastage rates from the professions and paraprofessions examined are lower than from the major trades. The report indicates that separation rates among professions and paraprofessions are diverse. At least half the trained nurses, mechanical and agricultural engineers and computer professionals leave their professions, but less than 20 per cent of dentists and doctors do so. The report suggests that family considerations, fluctuations in manufacturing activity, shift work and uncongenial working hours, as well as, to some extent, remuneration have an important influence on people leaving their profession. According to the report, high separation rates can mean the likelihood of a considerable loss of the use of skills developed through education and training. It can also mean an inefficient use of education and training resources. The significant rate at which people leave the occupation for which they were trained appears to be an important factor in contributing to skill shortages.
