With rapid technology advances and the arrival of the information age, education systems as well as labor markets have undergone tremendous changes. These changes affect not only curricula and teaching methodology but also the nature of skills and competencies required of graduates and new entrants to a changing workforce in the 21st century. This book examines the importance of education in the development of nations in the new millennium. It is unique in that it engages in cross-national and cross-cultural studies ranging from Australia to Japan, Canada, and the United Arab Emirates.
