The 21st century labour market is in a permanent process of change. Digitalisation, globalisation and ecological transformation have their impact on new jobs. Labour market asks for a more flexible worker, with skills focused on change, feedback and adaptation. Linked to this, is the development of future-proof skills. The 21st Century Skills form the basic skills package to meet the challenges of the working world, but it also needs ongoing updates.
