Abstract: This study's primary goal is to reveal the inconsistencies between education and employment in Turkey through five-year development plans. Document review is carried out for eleven development plans prepared between 1963 and 2019. Development plans were chosen because they demonstrate the state's fundamental education and employment policies and comparatively review the current situation and future objectives. These documents were also used to describe the era in which they were created. Firstly, the pre-planned period is briefly reviewed. Afterward, the author concentrates on the general characteristics of the planned period within the framework of development plans. After reviewing the education and employment policies in the development plans, the statements demonstrating the inconsistencies between education and employment are revealed. Consequently, it is observed that the Turkish state's economic and political approaches have changed over the years, but the inconsistencies between education and employment persist until today.
