LINKING HIGHER EDUCATION WITH THE LABOUR MARKET, UNEMPLOYMENT REDUCTION TARGET AMONG YOUNG GRADUATES OF HIGHER EDUCATION

The quality of higher education is a requirement of present society. If until about two decades ago the society's degree of satisfaction with the quality of Romanian education was currently positive, one can nowadays speak of a rather large degree of discomfort, because universities no longer respond to the social requirements. The whole Romanian educational system has many loopholes whose long-term effect will lead to serious economic and social imbalances. A good educational manager is the teacher trusted by other teachers, is that favorite teacher of the students, whose results are noticeable and appreciated by most educational actors. The educational manager's qualities derive from the behavior that they have towards colleagues and students. Educational managers contribute to the formation and development of individuals, but also to the formation and development of society, so that their responsibilities require active involvement, adapted to the cultural, economic and societal context. Facilitating rapid insertion of graduates in active professional life should be the main focus of all universities in the country and abroad, especially since the unemployment rate among young people continues to rise from one year to another. The quality of higher education can be guaranteed inside and outside the university once linking higher education with the labour market is no longer a desirable concept in education management, but an achieved goal. Students need incentives, academics who know to motivate, to raise their interest, to awaken them to reality. This is only possible by teaching some interactive courses that allow the combination of traditional and modern methods of teaching and evaluation.
