초록

본 연구의 의의는 우리나라의 개인주도훈련 제도와 현황을 검토하고, 고령자의 참여를 저해하는 요인이 무엇인지 확인하여 고령자의 노동시장 잔류 및 참여를 지원할 수 있는 시사점을 도출하는데 있다. 이를 위하여 인구고령화에 초점을 두고, 고용노동부의 개인주도 인적자원개발 정책인 국민내일배움카드제와 현행 고용보험제도를 살펴보고 고령자 직업훈련 참여의 현황과 이슈를 파악하였다. 그 결과 고령자 취업유지의 중요성과 고령자 개개인별 특성에 맞는 직업훈련 제공 및 전문적인 생애경력컨설팅의 필요성이 도출되었다. 이를 토대로 고령자의 개인주도훈련 활성화를 위한 제언으로 개인의 다양한 욕구를 기반으로 한 직업훈련의 다양성 제고, 생애주기별 관점에서의 전생에적 프로그램 운영, 국가 차원에서의 고령자 친화적 일터 조성 및 고령자의 자아실현을 위한 개인주도의 훈련 참여제고, 고령자의 고용 상담과 직업훈련의 연계 강화 등을 제시하였다.

The core of this study is to review South Korea's individual-driven training scheme, identify factors hindering elderly participation, and derive implications to support their retention and participation of the elderly in the labor market. This study focuses on population aging, examining the National Lifelong Learning Card system and the current employment insurance scheme, both initiatives of the Ministry of Employment and Labor, to assess the status and issues surrounding elderly participation in vocational training. Based on this analysis, the study seeks to derive policy measures and academic significance to promote elderly participation in vocational training. Based on this analysis, the study aims to derive policy measures and academic significance to promote the participation of older adults in vocational training. The findings emphasized the importance of employment retention for elderly and highlighted the need for vocational training tailored to the specific characteristics of each individual, along with the necessity for professional life-career consulting. Based on these findings, the study proposed recommendations to promote self-directed training among elderly, including enhancing the diversity of vocational training to meet individuals' varied needs, implementing lifelong vocational training programs from a life-cycle perspective, creating age-friendly workplaces at the national level, encouraging individual-driven training participation for the self-realization of elderly, and strengthening the linkage between employment counseling and vocational training for elderly.
