HR competence in the public sector: antecedents and outcomes

PurposeThis study examines antecedents and impacts of HR competence and effective HR practices in organizations. People are an essential asset in organizations, but their potential is reduced without robust HR practices and competent HR professionals. Few studies have investigated causes of low HR professional competence and poor HRM practices.Design/methodology/approachThis explanatory mixed-method study used survey data (N = 322), interviews and online statements. Data was collected in Vietnam, a country well suited to this study as it has considerable variation in institutional arrangements. It has legacies of Chinese, French and Soviet influence and more recently has adopted international reform models, such as new public management.FindingsAgency accountability, autonomy and servant leadership promote HR competence, and consequently effective HR practices, and employee and employer outcomes (public service motivation, organizational commitment and organizational performance). Interviews triangulate findings from the survey data and explain barriers (rules, incentives, nepotism, corruption) to these quantitatively examined processes occurring. Strategic solutions for improving HR practices and professional competence are identified.Practical implicationsPractical implications of this research include a greater understanding of the importance of individual accountability and autonomy for executives, with the promotion of servant leaders through better screening and leadership development. Selection criteria should hinge on achievement, merit and the desire to serve the public interest. Competent HRM units should be developed and supported. Such units should focus on managing performance through ensuring line managers do basics such as setting clear goals, giving feedback, training and developing staff. Developing succinct appraisal criteria that reward good performers and sanction poor performers needs to be prioritized.Social implicationsThis study provides useful guidance on how to reform public administration systems so that reforms are more effective.Originality/valueThis study identifies both institutional and leadership antecedents to both HR competence and HR practices and their subsequent impacts. Its institutional and developing country orientation complements past studies that have been psychologically oriented and in the global north.

온라인 NCS 피부미용실습 수업에서 교육환경과 능력단위인지가 학습만족도에 미치는 영향: 학습실재감의 매개효과

Objectives This study aims to analyze the mediating effect of learning presence in the relationships among educational environment, unit competency cognition, and learning satisfaction in the online NCS esthetics practice class. Methods A survey was conducted for 304 learners who had experience of attending the online NCS esthetics practice classes in the capital regions. Educational environment and unit competency cognition were set as independent variables, while learning presence was set as a mediating variable, and learning satisfaction as a dependent variable. Results The educational environment of the online NCS esthetics practice classes was perceived by the subjects to be more favorable at schools or academies, and lower when attended at home or cafes. Among the educational environment sub-factors, instructors' quality was perceived highly, while educational services were perceived low. Among the sub-factors of the educational environment, educational services positively affected learning presence. On the other hand, the sub-factor affecting the emotional and social presences most was the educational service, followed by lymphatic management and physical environment, while the sub-factor physical environment was most influential over the cognitive presence, followed by hygienic management and quality of instructors. On the other hand, the educational service and lymphatic management affected subjects' learning satisfaction positively. Besides, it was confirmed that the learning presence partially affected the relationship between competence unit recognition and learning satisfaction. Moreover, the educational service and the lymphatic management affected learning satisfaction positively, and the learning presence partially mediated the relationship between competence unit recognition and learning satisfaction. Conclusions It has been found that the overall learning satisfaction were low. The results of this study suggest that it would be necessary to explore some educational strategy to improve learners' learning satisfaction through improvement of the educational services, qualitative reform of the online educational environment, improvement of the esthetics pedagogics.

OJT 및 Off-JT가 일학습병행 효과성에 미치는 영향

Objectives The purpose is to identify the determining factors by which OJT and Off-JT influence the effective-ness of work-learning dual system and to propose efficient strategies for the operation of OJT and Off-JT. Methods To do this, an analysis was conducted on survey data from 2,061 respondents, who were apprentice workers, based on the 2021 work-based learning performance evaluation data from the Korea Research Institute for Vocational Education & Training. Basic statistical analysis and correlation analysis were performed using STATA 17 version to analyze the determining factors of OJT and Off-JT that affect the effectiveness of Korean Work-Learning Dual Program. Additionally, a Two-Stage Least Squares (2SLS) analysis model, which is a type of simultaneous equations model, was employed. The independent variables for OJT include the extent to which OJT helps improve job performance ability, the competency of workplace instructors, lecture satisfaction, the level of OJT relative to current ability, and OJT satisfaction. For Off-JT, the independent variables include the extent to which Off-JT helps improve job performance ability, the competency of instructors, lecture satisfaction, the level of Off-JT relative to current ability, and Off-JT satisfaction. The outcome variable is the effectiveness of work-learning dual system. Results According to the analysis, first, OJT was found to have a positive impact on improving job performance ability, which contributes to the effectiveness of work-learning dual system. Second, Off-JT also showed a pos-itive effect on improving job performance ability, which is a key indicator of the effectiveness of work-learning dual system. Third, the determining factors influencing external evaluations of the effectiveness of Korean Work- Learning Dual Program include several Off-JT factors, such as the competency of instructors, lecture satisfaction, the level of Off-JT relative to current ability, and Off-JT satisfaction, as well as educational background (high school or associate degree) and participation types, including the Industry-Academia Integrated Apprenticeship School and IPP-type work-based learning system. Conclusions The conclusions of this study are as follows: First, OJT allows apprentice workers to receive custom-ized training tailored to the company’s needs, creating an environment where they can immediately apply what they have learned to their work. As a result, the more satisfied the workers are with OJT, the more effective the work-learning dual system will be. Second, Off-JT can enhance job performance by providing theoretical supple-mentation and focusing on case studies from other companies, which helps improve the adaptability of apprentice workers to the workplace. Therefore, higher satisfaction with Off-JT will also lead to increased effectiveness of work-based learning programs. Third, since the primary goal of work-based learning is to cultivate talent that meets the needs of companies, it is important to set essential competency units required by the industry and re-flect the demands of the field. Reducing the weight of written exams while increasing the proportion of interviews and practical assessments related to on-the-job learning would positively impact the external evaluation of both OJT and Off-JT within work-learning dual system. Therefore, there is a need to develop NCS materials centered around learning companies, as well as company-specific training materials, and to structure training content ac-cordingly to better align OJT and Off-JT with the practical needs of the companies.

The Experience of Non-Full-Time Nursing Graduate Students in China: A Qualitative Study

To address the disconnection between the educational structure of nursing teams and the rapid development of China's medical and health industry, there is a shortage of highly educated nursing personnel. In 2016, Chinese universities introduced a new training model for nursing graduate students: non-full-time nursing graduate students. Due to its late development, this model needs continuous improvement. Understanding the training experience of non-full-time nursing graduate students is crucial for refining the training model. This study explores the experiences of non-full-time nursing graduate students and provides a basis for improving their training in China. Semi-structured qualitative interviews were conducted with 20 non-full-time nursing graduate students. Data were collated and analyzed using Colaizzi's method. The analysis identified five themes related to the study experiences of non-full-time nursing graduate students: (1) maladaptation to diversified roles; (2) weak scientific research foundation; (3) lack of high-level guidance in clinical practice; (4) concern about social recognition; and (5) lack of educational and training resources. Competent government and training units should fully understand the experiences of non-full-time nursing graduate students and improve their training model from the students' perspective to promote the development of high-quality nursing talents. This will ultimately benefit employers, training units, individuals, and patients.

Epidermal–dermal coupled spheroids are important for tissue pattern regeneration in reconstituted skin explant cultures

Tissue patterning is critical for the development and regeneration of organs. To advance the use of engineered reconstituted skin organs, we study cardinal features important for tissue patterning and hair regeneration. We find they spontaneously form spheroid configurations, with polarized epidermal cells coupled with dermal cells through a newly formed basement membrane. Functionally, the spheroid becomes competent morphogenetic units (CMU) that promote regeneration of tissue patterns. The emergence of new cell types and molecular interactions during CMU formation was analyzed using scRNA-sequencing. Surprisingly, in newborn skin explants, IFNr signaling can induce apical-basal polarity in epidermal cell aggregates. Dermal-Tgfb induces basement membrane formation. Meanwhile, VEGF signaling mediates dermal cell attachment to the epidermal cyst shell, thus forming a CMU. Adult mouse and human fetal scalp cells fail to form a CMU but can be restored by adding IFNr or VEGF to achieve hair regeneration. We find different multi-cellular configurations and molecular pathways are used to achieve morphogenetic competence in developing skin, wound-induced hair neogenesis, and reconstituted explant cultures. Thus, multiple paths can be used to achieve tissue patterning. These insights encourage more studies of “in vitro morphogenesis” which may provide novel strategies to enhance regeneration.

The German National Cohort (NAKO): Design, current state, and further follow-up data collection

Abstract The German National Cohort (NAKO) is the largest population-based cohort study in Germany and provides a central resource for epidemiologic research. NAKO aims to investigate the development and aetiology of diseases, and to identify risk factors and enhance early detection and prevention of diseases with a focus on diabetes, cancer, cardiovascular, pulmonary, neurological, psychiatric, and infectious diseases. Between 2014 and 2019, overall 205,415 participants aged 20-74 years were recruited and examined at 18 study centres across Germany. During their visit to the study centre, they participated in an extensive examination programme including a face-to-face interview, self-administered, computer-based questionnaires, broad biomedical examinations (e.g., blood pressure, electrocardiograms, oral glucose tolerance tests) and provision of bio-samples (blood, urine, stool, saliva, nasal swabs). In addition, a subgroup of 30,861 participants received whole-body Magnet Resonance Imaging (MRI) with a focus on brain, heart, the musculoskeletal system, and body fat distribution. All study participants are re-invited for examinations at the study centres at 4-5 year intervals. The programme of the first re-examination is similar to the baseline programme in order to detect changes in risk factor profiles and in vascular, cardiac, metabolic, neurocognitive, pulmonary and sensory function. By 31.03.23, 100,822 participants were re-examined, including 14,950 with MRI re-examination. A third examination will start in 2024. Data collection is standardized, and central quality control and data cleaning is performed. For more complex data (e.g., echocardiography, accelerometry), competence units process the data and derive variables on exposure, functions, and disease. Due to its large sample size, the in-depth examination programme and the longitudinal design, NAKO provides an excellent source for better understanding of determinants for health and disease at the population level.

Analisis Kompetensi Pustakawan dalam Penerapan Teknologi Informasi dan Komunikasi di Perpustakaan Khusus Kementerian/Lembaga

The role of adaptive librarians affects the implementation of Information and Communication Technology (ICT), especially in governmental libraries. It adjusts the competencies and abilities needed by librarians. Therefore, librarians are required to rebuild and improve their skills related to ICT. In Indonesia, Standar Kompetensi Kerja Nasional Indonesia (SKKNI) 2019 is used as a national education &amp; training framework for librarians. To explore this theme according to SKKNI, a sequential exploratory research was conducted with contributions from librarians and/or library staff who work in governmental libraries across the Republic of Indonesia. Through in-depth interviews, focused group discussions with 28 librarians from 14 governmental libraries in Jabodetabek, also an online survey (74 respondents), the researchers were able to gain a pattern that showed the tendency of higher ability level in the competency units related to ICT utilization in the library than the competency units in developing library information systems. The unit of competence with the highest mean score is the unit of competence related to multimedia production, including the management of the library’s social media content. Aligning with this result, National Library as the central supervisor for the librarian needs to collaborate with related stakeholders, especially in accommodating competence development efforts to build a national digital ecosystem. Those efforts include the formulation of continuing development program -gradual education and training program. Through this collaboration between various stakeholders, the development of librarian competencies specifically within governmental libraries can be carried out efficiently, following the real needs in the field.
