Sadílková, Petra ; Čabanová, Bohumila (advisor) ; Nekolová, Markéta (referee)
This bachelor thesis deals with the situation of elderly people in the labour market. Czech population is aging. Life expectancy is increasing and the number of older people grows. This fact influences labour market and overall development of society. In order to continue functioning of social system and in order to maintain the current standard of living of the elderly population, it is necessary to participate in the labour market for a longer time. Elderly people do not represent an interesting and promising workforce for companies in many ways. Employers do not appreciate the quality and potential of seniors and prefer younger workers. Elderly people are persons of pre-retirement age who are ranked as a risk group in the labour market, threatened by unemployment. This thesis defines barriers limiting larger economic activity of elderly people. The main goal is to identify existing instruments to combat shortages of older people. The thesis proposes the measures to encourage elderly people's involvement in the labour market, and opportunities to increase their human capital. The research results indicate that key factors for long working life are advanced training and development of qualification and skills. These actions enable the extension of economic activity, which is a necessity nowadays.

The importance of psychoterapeutic training in the work experience of helping professionals
VALOŠEKOVÁ, Andrea
This bachelor's thesis deals with the importance of long term self-experience psychotherapeutic training for work in helping professions. Those who pursue the most natural of human activity - helping the other people - as a profession, they must reckon with lifelong learning and improving themselves. The helping professional might consider starting self-experience training in case his professional activity influences his personal life and vice versa. It is very important to examine professional´s capabilities and limits affecting professional´s work as well as his own life within the training process. In the theoretical part of the thesis is introduced the impact of some contemporary psychotherapeutic directions on particular training models as well as search for present opportunities of long-term psychotherapeutic trainings with the stress on self-experience. There are also described related ethical aspects of helping professions. In view of the fact there is broad range of trainings available the scheme of training provided by Training Centre Fokus Praha by the course "Choose your own psycho-therapeutic training" has been taken as a basis. As well the risks of this occupation (such as burnout and the ways to prevent it) are not omitted in the bachelor´s thesis.The main issues of the research part of the thesis are findings of motivational assumptions, barriers to entry the course and the effect of self-experience on personal as well as professional therapist's life. Possible motivation and profit for the employer are also examined. The self-experience training might have an essential impact on professional´s life and career (the applicant´s maturity, teamwork, empathy etc.). This conclusion is based on the experience gained during the research part of the thesis completion. As a negative definition of range of this thesis neither the real use of the self-experience training in psychotherapist´s practice is examined nor the training supervision is deeper analysed.

Possibilities and Prospects of E-learning in Lifelong Education of Nurses
PETERKOVÁ, Blanka
Czech health care and nursing is undergoing a significant transformation during the last years and it touches the changes in the education of health professionals. There are changing demands on the training, on the knowledge level and also on the graduate profile in accordance with the recommendations of the Europlan Union. Following these recommendations the requirements of lifelong education of nurses are also profiled. E-learning education is an important tool in use in the educational process of nursing and an effort to use processes of nursing care based on evidence.The aim of the study was to determine how nurses use e-learning in lifelong education and whether nurses prefer classical forms of education to e-learning, to map whether they have possibilities of e-learning within the facilities they work in and whether there is a sufficient supply of e-learning courses supporting lifelong education of nurses in the Czech Republic. The last goal of the study was to create an e-learning course focused on specific problems at the orthopedic ward of the Hospital Tábor, a.s. In relation to the objectives the following hypotheses were designed: H1-Nurses with university education use e-learning more than non-graduates. H2-Nurses with university education consider e-learning in clinical practice for more beneficial than traditional forms of education, unlike non-graduate nurses. H3-Nurses with clinical practice shorter than 5 years prefer e-learning more often than nurses with practice longer than 5 years. For the thesis was selected a quantitave survey form using anonymous questionnaries that were distributed electronically to the individual clinical departments. The research sample consisted of registered nurses according to Act 96/2004 Coll., As amended, from specialized outpatient clinical departments of 16 providers of medical facilities in the Czech Republic. The questionnaries were processed by matrix method in Excel 2013 and the results were converted into graphs and tables using descriptive statistics. A statistical evaluation of hypotheses was made as well. Hypotheses were tested by chi-square test in contingency tables. The selected level of significance was 5%.Results: Nurses mostly use e-learning to get professional information for nursing care. The most common reason for not using or even rejection of e-learning by nurses is that this form of education does not suit them. Most nurses do not have the opportunity to e-learning in facilities where they work and also they cannot implement the knowledge gained by e-learning. The offer of e-learning courses over time is constantly changing and evolving, some courses have even completely disappeared. A course offer is sufficient, although nurses miss some types of courses. There was to create an e-learning course "Collection of biological material, or how not make mistakes in the pre-analytic phase" focusing on specific problematic aspects of blood collection within the medical facility Hospital Tábor,a.s. The results of the survey will be together with the e-learning course given to the leading management of the Hospital Tábor,a. s.

Cross-cultural training in multinational companies
Hořejšová, Vendula ; Raisová, Tereza (referee) ; Kocianová, Renata (advisor)
Cross-cultural training (CCT) represents an integral part of predeparture preparation for employees leaving for long-term job assignments, shortterm stays or business trips as well as for international team members. Developing intercultural competence, CCT can accelerate adjustment to new social environments and work conditions as well as mitigate difficulties occurring during the adjustment process. Good adjustment is a precondition of effective job performance at new location and, thus, enables achieving organizational goals. The thesis paper presents development of approaches to CCT design from the 1980s until now. Current approaches prefer an integrated CCT consisting of a general part - focused on cultural awareness and personal development - and a specific part - training employees for intercourses within a specific culture. Specific CCT methods and forms are further mentioned as well as the issue of CCT effectiveness. Introductory chapters shall give a brief overview of the specifics of international personnel management and cultural dimensions and standards.
