Abstract

The purpose of the study is to examine the agribusiness companies’ demand for employee competence and how these competences comply with universities’ curricula. The survey consists of a structured questionnaire that was administered to 427 managers of agribusiness companies in Albania. This research has provided an assessment of the profile of necessary skills required by the agribusiness firms. Results indicate that universities’ curricula do not comply with the set of skills and behaviors that is sought after by employers in this sector. This study examines the gap between universities’ curricula and the businesses’ needs for human resources’ competences.
