ABSTRACT
The article is devoted to the meaning and role of education for the work activity of a modern person. Currently, there is a paradoxical situation in the labor market – on the one hand, there is a severe shortage of personnel, and on the other hand, employers’ demands for the level of training and competencies of employees are increasing. In this regard, the question of the value and significance of education for workers of various socio-demographic characteristics arises. Based on a questionnaire survey of workers in various fields of activity in the Republic of Tatarstan (n=1271) and in-depth interviews (n=17), as well as secondary analysis of data from all-Russian surveys conducted by VTsIOM on the topic of this work, the importance of both basic and additional education for workers was considered of different ages and different fields of activity – from industrial workers to business owners. Based on the data obtained, it was revealed that basic higher education is more valued by older people, paying attention not only to its actual availability, but also to the quality of receipt. The frequency of receiving additional education and plans for further training does not have a significant connection with the age of the respondents, and largely depends on the field of activity and position of the respondents. Business owners demonstrate the greatest readiness for additional education. Among hired workers, those most likely to plan to receive additional education in the coming year are education workers, representatives of the public sector and the information technology sector, and workers in industry and trade are the least likely to talk about plans to receive additional education.
