“The digital and green twin transitions demonstrate how skills will have a concrete impact on the real, urgent transformations that the European workforce must navigate — and we are now starting to see the impact of EU stakeholders’ upskilling and reskilling efforts”
The EU Year of Skills may be coming to an end, but it's really a beginning — the start of a fundamental shift to a skills-based economy. Skills will be the building blocks of the transformations that the European workforce will undergo; from the climate crisis, to the AI transformation, to advancing equity in the workforce, we stand at the threshold of a new era where the agility of the labour force will determine the competitiveness of economies. I share more today in POLITICO Europe including recommendations for policymakers, business leaders and workers on how to accelerate the shift to skills-based hiring. #EUYearOfSkills #SkillsFirst

The skills landscape is changing rapidly: without the right mix of skills economies cannot adapt, nor take advantage of new technologies. The findings from the Skills England initiative point to the challenges that many economies will need to solve in the near future: 💡 IT skills are rapidly emerging and then becoming obsolete 💡 The pace of skills change varies massively across occupations (interesting data on that in the report) 💡 Interpersonal skills continue to grow in importance The importance of continuous learning and training is clear, where businesses, policymakers, education providers should join their forces to bridge the gap between skills supply and demand. An insightful report from the Institute on the Future of Work: #skills #lifelonglearning #AI #education #technology Carla Maldonado, Ph.D. Margareta Drzeniek Ilaria Marchese Anatoli Kovalev Sergali Adilbekov Victoria D. Felix Strobl Kalyani V.
Earlier this week, the Prime Minister and Education Secretary announced the launch of Skills England, an initiative that will bring together government, businesses, and training providers to address skills shortages and drive growth (https://shorturl.at/7dkKq). But how can we align with Skills England's mission to prepare our workforce for the future? Our "Old Skills, New Skills" report highlights the shifting landscape of skill demands due to technology and sector changes. Read our report here: https://lnkd.in/eptXQQgs

Specialist in private sector development, business environment reform and regional economic development.
Because the private sector creates the most employment globally, we need to pay attention to how we can encourage private businesses to invest in skills development. Private business owners must come to see how a more skilled workforce will improve productivity, business competitiveness and profitability. #jobcreation #privatesectordevelopment #privatesector #skillsdevelopment #tvet
