摘要:AbstractSmart, sustainable and inclusive economic growth with high employment level (the strategy „Europe 2020”) is the goal to which Latvia aspire. Achievement of this goal is largely dependent on human capital and its quality. In this context, it is necessary to develop such skilled workforce, which would be able rationally respond to labor market needs and its changes, otherwise the sustainability of economic growth and prosperity will met more difficulties. In this paper the interaction between human capital, education and the labor market is evaluated. As an indicator for evaluation higher education and vocational training are used, which are quite important parameters affecting the quality of human capital, while the interaction and the results are evaluated using the Latvian experience.
