National Qualifications Authority completes a draft of occupational classification system

 
Page Content

 

The “National Qualifications Authority” has completed a draft of the “national qualifications system of classification and labeling for Government and private sector”, which aims to contribute to end the problems and dilemmas arising from the lack of such a system in the State, and to achieve the Government's vision 2021and its strategic direction towards transition to the knowledge economy and promoting social and economic development programs.

Dr. “Thani Al Mehairi”, General Manager of the Authority pointed out that there will be coordinated with the relevant labor market such as the Ministries of “Labor” and “Interior”, departments of economic development, authorities, other governmental and private bodies and councils of naturalization, for their comments to prepare final draft of the system, and start to formulate a policy and procedures for its implementation, since the State in contrast strives through the competent federal authorities on this matter, to qualify university graduates in distinctive and rare programs through cooperation with universities of great potential to train and employ the largest number of students, for specialized training needs of the labor market.

This national system will be universal in specifications and will rely on major divisions of “International Standard Classification of Occupations” (ISCO-08) by the “International Labor Organization” and have the specificities, nomenclature and specifications of occupations and the work environment in the State.

This system will provide a unified, clear electronic classification and description of occupations and jobs in the Government sector, whether federal or local and in the private sector, and will contribute to linking education with the needs of the labor market, which is one of the main objectives of the national system of qualifications, not to mention saving time, effort, money and data for specialists, and providing a common language between jobseekers and employers. Recruiters and training authorities can have an agreement of what is required of the job seeker and what is required in the national standard professional skills for the job.
