New Skills Network

• most countries have systems for skills anticipation although they vary greatly in sophistication and detail

• shift in the objectives from manpower planning to more general assessment to inform all labour market participants

• systems are becoming more sophisticated and complex, there is a clear trend to combine methods

• the case for a pan-European system for skill needs anticipation is generally accepted and Cedefop work has begun, to fill this gap

• more remains to be done - various initiatives underway, including the EU Skills Panorama.

Bridging the Skills Gap

learning development professionals,

to share knowledge and experience,

to build partnerships and to develop

solutions relevant to changing

sectoral skills needs”

Incentives for Skills

Participating Projects

From Farm to Fork

Partners from 7 European countries worked together

to develop a training programme on food safety,

able to meet increasing European demands for

health, hygiene and safety in the food sector.

Adopting a “farm to fork” approach, target

beneficiaries included veterinary practitioners

alongside chemical, agricultural and food engineers.

Needs Analysis for SMEs

Partners from 5 European countries targeted the

transfer, updating and improvement of existing

“training needs analysis” methods and practices.

Covering both organisational and individual

needs analysis, target beneficiaries were

senior managers with specific responsibility

for employee training provision.

Biotechnology Skills

Targeting increased University-Industry

cooperation, partners from 7 European

countries worked together to develop a common

skills profile for Biotechnology graduates.

Incorporating both occupational and soft skills,

the enhanced skills profile targeted improved

responsiveness, in Higher Education, to the

needs of industry and the future labour market.

The Call of Nature

Targeting increased collaboration between VET

and microenterprises working in rural and

nature-based industries, partners from 7

European countries worked together to identify

innovative examples of successful cooperation.

Identified examples are used as “success stories”,

to promote continuing cooperation and joint

skills development activity in the sector.

Entrepreneurship Skill

Targeting the modernisation of Higher Education,

partners from 5 European countries encouraged

increased cooperation between the business and

Higher Education sectors in order to facilitate

graduate transition to the labour market, with a

particular focus on increased entrepreneurship skill.

Joint research and consultancy activity led to

development of a competencies assessment

package supporting tutors and other staff working on

student development plans.
