In order to contribute to this agenda, employment and training organisations need to align their services effectively with local conditions and with broader local economic development strategies. 12 OECD countries are being reviewed by the OECD to understand how this can best be achieved, while ensuring the achievement of national policy objectives. At this session the OECD will release the results of this work and some of the participating countries will highlight their experiences. 9.30-10.30 Chair: Sylvain Giguère, Head of the LEED Division, OECD Comparative results from 12 countries by Jonathan Barr, OECD LEED Panel discussion: OECD, city & regional authorities, regional /local offices of employment and training agencies, and employers.
