Abstract:
ANTA and its agencies are responsible for developing national and state strategiv plans for VET. Governments direct their VET budgets through ANTA to fund plan implementation.
To what extent and in what ways do these authorities design active resource allocation mechamisms to provide patterns of incentives and sanctions to ensure that public and private providers supply planned training services efficiently, effectively and responsively? This paper focuses on two approaches to active resource allocation: the development of a 'training market' and the payment of providers on the basis of skills learnt rather than on teaching effort.
Educational and organisational implications of the implementation of these two resource allocation approaches are considered.
