Inevitably, this shall pave the way to future business models requiring a broader skills set. Through skills intelligence and forecasting the Council aims to work with industry and their representatives for better talent management and anticipating future skills needs
Education and Training providers
A resilient society requires that all citizens embrace a learning to learn attitude, that does not stop at compulsory schooling, but continues throughout their life. Education and training are key to prepare tomorrow’s workers, as well for reskilling and upskilling today’s workforce. The National Skills Council welcomes collaboration with education and training providers towards adapting to current and future skills needs, with a special focus on the green and digital transition.
Social Partners and Civil Society
The National Skills Council engages with trade unions, non-governmental institutions, youth as well as activists in favour of skills development and initiatives that enhance social inclusion. The Council looks forward to enhance collaboration with social partners and civil society, advocating for up-skilling and re-skilling of the workforce to improve their wellbeing and productivity.
Policy Makers
Skills development is a cross-cutting issue, influencing all sectors and the welfare of society at large. The Council therefore works with national entities, with an evidence-based approach and informed through skills intelligence, supporting local policy makers to ensure that skills development are embedded in all national policies.
International Partners
The National Skills Council endeavours to actively collaborate with organisations abroad in order to enhance its activities, in line with its mandate to replicate best practices. To this effect, the Council welcomes collaboration with foreign counterparts as well as umbrella organisations with a particular interest in the labour market and skills.
