Europe needs a radical step change in ambition and action – for all skill levels and for all types of training and education. This is as important for people’s careers and prospects as it is for our competitiveness. This is where the Union of Skills comes in. On March 5th of 2025, the Commission will launch the Union of Skills. This will boost competitiveness, reinforce the skills of workers, and highlight the talent of Europeans.
The foundation
of our economy
is
people.
Their hard work,
their talents
and skills.
Competitiveness
today is
less about
the cost
of labour,
much
more about
the knowledge
of workers.
Here
in Europe,
companies
find
incredibly
experienced
workers
and
top-notch
tech graduates.
But
we do not have
enough of them.
We will
launch a
Union
of Skills
focusing
on
lifelong
learning
and
skill
retention
