The purpose of this study was to investigate the differences in the characteristics of the aesthetic salon operation and job satisfaction according to important considerations in opening aesthetic salons as well as to provide basic data for improving the operation of the salons. Toward this aim, a questionnaire survey was conducted for owners of small aesthetic salons across South Korea from January-March, 2016. Results were as follows: Among those who identified means of transportation and parking convenience as key considerations in launching aesthetic salon businesses, length of service, length of business operation, monthly fixed revenue and proportion of the highest profit were highest. Job satisfaction (F=3.223, p<.05) was highest (M=4.11) among those that responded 'floating population' as a primary component in launching aesthetic salon businesses, and lowest among owners who mentioned 'cost of investment' (M=3.41). Specifically, job mobility (F=2.960, p<.05) was the highest among respondents who selected means of transportation and parking convenience (M=3.95) as key criteria in launching aesthetic salon business. For the stable operation of an aesthetic salon, a location with high floating population, good transportation, parking convenience, high levels of customer access, and job satisfaction are critical factors. In addition, future studies should examine marketing strategies by operating characteristics.

The purpose of this study is to grasp the difference in vocational education and training and vocational competency according to the career movement path, targeting middle-aged Koreans (ages 40 to 64) who have experience in vocational mobility. A survey was conducted for a month in February 2020, and among the 1,224 data, 845 middle-aged adults who had moved within the last 5 years were selected. First, 69.0% of them moved to work, and 48.2% of them moved to 'employment→employment'. Second, among all groups, 80.6% did not participate in vocational education and training. Third, the 'employment→employment' group had the highest perception of job basic ability and job competency and job seeking skills compared to other groups. And the job competency of middle-aged workers who moved from 'employment to unemployment and housework (childcare)' appeared to be slightly lower than those of other groups.

Purpose: This study was done to construct a hypothetical model to explain the factors influencing career commitment of nurses. Methods: Three factors (individual internal-, job- and career-characteristics) and 8 sub-factors were measured with Likert scales. Data collection was conducted from Jan. 11 to 31, 2011 using self-report questionnaires. Participants(738 nurses) were selected from 6 hospitals in 2 metropolitan cities of South Korea. Collected data were analyzed using SPSS Window 16.0 and Amos 19.0. Results: 1) Among the 3 factors, career commitment was most strongly influenced by career-characteristics. 2) Career commitment wasinfluenced by organizational-career-management but not by personal-career-management. 3) Career commitment was influenced by individual internal-characteristics but not by job-characteristics. 4) Of the 8 sub-factors, career commitment was most strongly influenced by desire-for-growth but not by self-efficiency. Conclusion: The results of this study indicate that in order to improve career commitment of nurses it is necessary to implement custom-made career development policies considering individual characteristics in the organizational level.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the factors that determine whether college graduates majoring in culinary arts are employed. To achieve this purpose, this study largely divided the factors affecting the status of employment into the personal background, college life, and employment preparation activities factors. And, the data of 164 graduates who graduated from culinary arts-related departments participating in the Graduate Occupational Mobility Survey (GOMS) were used. The analysis results are summarized as follows. First, it was found that the health status and experience of job-seeking activities of college graduates majoring in culinary arts decreased the employment probability. On the other hand, major satisfaction and certification acquisition were found to increase the employment probability. Second, the health status and experience of job-seeking activities of graduates who participated in 2018GOMS were found to decrease the employment probability, and major satisfaction and grade were found to increase the employment probability. Third, it was found that only the health status of graduates who participated in 2019GOMS affected the status of employment. Therefore, in order to increase the employment rate of culinary arts majors at the end of COVID 19, universities need to make efforts to increase their satisfaction with their majors and their grades while attending college.

Accelerated technological advances and the convergence of information and communication technologies have led to changes of career concepts from one of lifetime employment to that of lifetime career. Given the importance of continuous career development for workers these days, systematic supports for workers' career development at the national level is necessary. Accordingly, a conceptual model of career competency mobility map (CCMM) has been proposed to support the development of workers' career competencies. The purpose of this study is to identify key issues that we should consider for real implementation by applying to each stage of the CCMM conceptual model as a case study. Based on the procedure presented in the conceptual model, the research process which includes collecting user information, conducting self-diagnosis of NCS-based job competencies, deriving necessary training competency, offering the guidance of training programs and job information were conducted. The results of the case study showed our participants' scores of competencies required further development and ranged from 1.83 to 4.52. Sequentially, a personalized information profile was offered for competency development, including training, certificates, and job information. Participants stated that the diagnosis results and profiles were meaningful and helped to explore further career development. Based on the results, implications are suggested.

${\cdot}$ Recent social policy and labour markets debates in Europe, responding to the difficulties faced by the traditional neo-Keynesian welfare state settlement, stress the value of positive investment alongside de-regulation and greater flexibility as a way of achieving both economic and social goals. ${\cdot}$ Patterns of policy reform are complex and reflect differing national circumstances. A general move towards deregulation, constraints on entitlement to passive benefits, programmes to enhance employment, particularly among high-risk groups such as single parents and young people, targeted subsidies for low earners and casemanagement may be identified. ${\cdot}$ In relation to investment in education, research and development and combined training and benefit programmes to enhance mobility between jobs the picture is less clear. Education standards continue to rise, but research and development spending stagnates and few countries have developed substantial ‘flexi-curity’ programmes to support job mobility. ${\cdot}$ The labour market tradition in much of Europe has been one of conflict between labour and employers. As labour grows weaker, new approaches develop. These tend to stress productivity agreements and greater flexibility in work practices within firms and reforms to passive social security systems more broadly, but movement to support the more challenging investment and flexi-curity policies is slow. ${\cdot}$ In general, social and labour market policies in Europe stress deregulation and negative activation more strongly than social investment and ‘flexi-curity’. The countries with high growth and employment achieve that goal by different routes: Sweden has a closely integrated social democratic corporatism with high spending on benefits and training programmes and the UK a more liberal market-oriented system, with lower spending, highly targeted benefits and less mobility support. ${\cdot}$ Europe has something to learn from Korea in achieving high investment in human capital and R and D, while Korea may have something to learn from Europe in social investment, particularly flexi-curity and equal opportunity policies.

Since 1980's, the opportunities of higher education have increased absolutely to the extent worrying of over-education. The over-education means that job-seekers having a bachelor degree flow into job market much more than necessary and the problem of unemployment and under-employment becomes more serious. These changes in the labor market can affect the university selection behaviors of high school graduates. This study aims to reveal the impacts of over-education in Chungbuk, a periphery region, Korea. As expected, many of college graduates flow down into jobs asking school years less than higher education. On the other hand, high school graduates have an tendency of choosing a college, especially a college in center region, other than universities in Chungbuk, to expect more stable and rewarding job in income and upward mobility after the graduation of higher education. As the result of this, a regional university district, which means most of students in the region enter college within region limit, is getting broken into more smaller districts, a kind of local district. It can be thought as a sign that the dominance of regional center is weakening and more cities in the region receive a direct affects from center region, not through regional center.

This study begins with the assumption that the existing impact analysis studies did not present determinate criteria on which the studies were based. After we criticized the limitations of existing studies, we presented goal-based criteria and evaluated the long-term job-seekers subsidy as a case. This evaluation study is of micro-effect analysis which focuses on the effects on subsidized employees and employers. The Findings are: The subsidized employees were appropriately selected and can be taken as having difficulties in the labour market. The employment effect of the subsidy was significantly positive, though the wage effect was significantly negative. The effect of maintaining of skill measured by occupational mobility was positive, but not significant. The effect of increasing the quantity of employments in the subsidized companies were found significant. It could be proposed from the findings that the wage subsidy for the frail labour force is so effective as the subsidy for the employed labour force and could be boosted.

Large-scale online platforms such as MOOCs-Massive Open Online Courses, which provide a variety of educational contents, have provided a learning environment that allows students to freely access and learn anytime and anywhere. Currently, the proportion of online lectures and home-based learning is increasing, and portfolio or experience-based learning such as bootcamp, field activities, and team project-based group learning are also being actively carried out for educational outcomes. At present, interest in nano or microdegree focused on core technology in units of hours or credits is increasing significantly because such strategic intensive education enables effective learning in terms of continuity and efficiency of education. In an era of large changes in job market due to the reorganization of the industrial structure by new technologies, intensive education in specialized new technology fields such as smart mobility, big data, and artificial intelligence is much more conducive to finding a job. With this reason it is attracting attention as an alternative to lifelong learning are receiving In this paper we propose an educational platform that can efficiently and effectively support the purpose learning for the personalized microdegree education in the online learning era.

Purpose This study examines firms at various industries to identify key organizational characteristics that positively drive the evaluation of cloud computing. In addition, this study tests the impact of one's evaluation has on the adoption and integration of cloud computing within their respective firm. Design/methodology/approach A total of 172 responses from various firms currently using cloud computing service were analyzed using the structural equation modeling(SEM). Findings Results show that organizational Needs(Mobility and Job Relevance), Perceived Factors(Relative Advantages and Cost Savings), and Organizational Readiness(Technical Knowledge, Financial Supports, and Managerial Supports) have a significant impact on cloud computing evaluation; and evaluation influences its adoption, and integration. However, two variables(IT Performance Gaps and Compatibility) have no significant impact on cloud computing evaluation. Finally, Evolutional Leadership has a significant moderating effect within the relationship among variables in the process of cloud computing implementation.
