Abstract

All countries that want to improve their living standards are focused on four elements of development: human resources, technology use, natural resources and capital accumulation. When it comes to human resources, their quality must be taken into account through controlling diseases and improving general health and nutrition; improving education, training and reducing illiteracy. Knowledge and investment in human resources have become the most important factors at the macroeconomic and microeconomic level, in addition to technology and finance. Strategic human resource management focuses on the skills and competencies of employees, so they involve a higher level of care. Educated workforce is important for enterprises, because today without the accumulation of knowledge it is not possible to achieve accumulation of capital. The Bologna Declaration within the EU points to the need to create a European Higher Education Area, internationally competitive, adaptable to society's changing and knowledge markets.
