The study identified 16 basic skills (Carnevale, 1990)[citation needed] that the workplace of the future would need in the employee of the future.

    General skills

    Learning to learn

    Learning is an integral part of everyday life at work. The skill of knowing how to learn is a must for every worker and is the key to acquiring new skills and sharpening the ability to think through problems and to surmount challenges. It opens the door to all other learning and facilitates the acquisition of other skills. .What we do know, we learned from watching the "A" students in grade school and high school.^ It includes elementary algebra, taught to high school students, as well as abstract algebra which covers such structures as groups, rings and fields.

    The concept of "study smarter - not harder" applies here. Few of us know how to "study smarter" based on our individual learning style. A secondary benefit of learning how to learn is that it empowers the learner to become a self-directed learner capable of identifying a deficiency, finding resource materials, and doing the work based on methods appropriate for his or her learning style. Skill acquisition is the ability to develop a measurable task repeatedly.[1]

    Foundation skills

    From the employer's perspective, the skill of knowing how to learn is cost-effective because it can mitigate the cost of retraining efforts. .When workers use efficient learning strategies, they absorb and apply training more quickly, saving their employers money and time.^ The title is often more informally used to address learned men as a courtesy.

    Many employers - particularly those dealing with rapid technological change see the learning-to-learn skill as an urgent necessity. Productivity, innovation, and competitiveness all depend on developing the workers' learning capability. .Machinery and processes are transferable between companies and countries, but it is the application of human knowledge to technology and systems that provides the competitive edge.^ Not only did their job require knowledge of human anatomy, they also had to perform rituals at several stages during the process.

    This forces employers to spend more on these critical competence skills. .The majority of workers are literate and numerate but frequently, cannot use these skills effectively because they are rusty when called upon to use mathematical principles they have not used for 20 years, because they must use the skills in a context different from the one in which they originally learned them, or because they do not understand how to expand or apply the skill.^ However, there are only a few innerspring manufacturers and four general types: Bonnel coils These are the oldest ones and most commonly used.

    Reading

    Reading has historically been considered the fundamental vocational skill for a person to get, keep, get ahead, or to change jobs. .One educational assessment by Kirsch and Jungeblut in 1986, indicates that there is a large nationwide population of intermediate literates who only have fourth to eighth grade literacy equivalency (but are high school graduates) and who have not obtained a functional or employable literacy level.^ There are indications of seasonal or only temporary occupation of the Al Fayyum in the 6th millennium BC, with food activities centering on fishing, hunting and food-gathering 5.

    Computation

    Because of technology, simple mathematical computation is important as employers focus on an employee's ability to compute at higher levels of sophistication. The introduction of sophisticated management and quality control approaches demand higher mathematical skills. Ironically, as occupational skill-level requirements climb, higher educational dropout rates and worsening worker deficiencies in computational skills are appearing (Brock, 1987; Kirsch and Jungeblut, 1986; Semerad, 1987). Employers complain particularly about miscalculations of decimals and fractions, resulting in expensive production errors. .Employees must calculate correctly to conduct inventories, complete accurate reports of production levels, measure machine parts or specifications so that medium-to-high levels of mathematics skills are required across job categories.^ Algebra--the basic ideas First of 6 parts in a short course on basic algebra at the high school level.

    Conversely, solid personal management skills are often manifested by efficient integration of new technology or processes, creative thinking, high productivity, and a pursuit of skill enhancement. Unfortunately, problems related to these skill areas have increased primarily because entry-level applicants are arriving with deficiencies in personal management skills. On the job, the lack of personal management skills affects hiring and training costs, productivity, quality control, creativity, and ability to develop skills to meet changing needs. This presents a series of roadblocks that slow or halt an organizations progress. .An organization with such difficulties cannot plan accurately for its future to integrate new technology, establish new work structures, or implement new work processes.^ Over time Egypt spread south and technologies such as iron working, and perhaps ideas such as that of monarchy spread into Nubia and further south.
