The European Commission is rethinking skills in the context of Europe 2020

The EC published a roadmap for “Rethinking skills in the context of Europe 2020”.

Amongst others, the roadmap mentions the strategic framework for European cooperation in education and training (ET2020) that stresses the importance of transversal competences such as entrepreneurship, digital competence and multilingualism. As such, it endorses the findings of many eJobs profiles. 

Another roadmap deals with the Internationalisation of Higher Education.

As with the roadmap before, the emphasis on language learning and multilingualism is considered an important asset for internationalisation.
