CANADIAN HUMAN RESOURCES
By Samantha Oliver
General Characteristics of Agricultural, Industrial, and Information Age Human Resources
-
Agricultural Age Human Resources:
Low percentages of literacy(60%-65% or less roughly) and low average educational levels. High school education not necessary to work in the fields in agriculture.
-
Industrial Age Human Resources:
Higher percentage literacy than agricultural age, based on value of at least a high school education, including for blue collar jobs. College education for management and professional jobs.
-
Information Age Human Resources:
Very high literacy rates of population (90%+ preferably), and ideally at least some college education or other skilled job training. Also lifetime learning, requiring everyone to regularly update their education and training in their job area. Longer lifespans also mean an average of three careers and eleven jobs in a lifetime, also requiring further education.
