Experts from many international, regional and national agencies generously share their views, experiences and findings on skills, helping policy-makers among other stakeholders to understand the linkages between education, training and the world of work, and how to integrate skills into national development planning to promote employment and economic growth.
Anticipating and matching skills needs
Anticipating and building skills for the future is essential to a rapidly changing labour market. This applies to changes in the types and levels of skills needed as well as in occupational and technical areas. Effective methods to anticipate future skills needs and avoid potential mismatches include: sustained dialogue between employers and trainers, coordination across government institutions, labour market information systems, employment services and performance reviews of training institutions.

As part of the European Commission support for the preparation of the second cycle of the Instrument for Pre-Accession Assistance (IPA II), the ETF facilitates this process in the enlargement countries through the Future Frame initiative. The FRAME initiative places skills at the centre for HRD and social development as skills are one of the key elements contributing to the prosperity of national economic growth and the better lives of individuals. The focus is on the adaptation of the education and training system in a lifelong learning perspective covering initial and continuing vocational education and training (VET) and higher education. It also includes adult learning, company based training and training of the unemployed. Kosovo, with the support of ETF, has formulated and produced tangible and interrelated results for a shared Vision for SKILLS 2020, with Priorities and a Roadmap for the Human Resource Development (HRD) sector. The results are presented in this Report. This report is a preparatory input to IPA II programming, and specifically should inform the Country Strategy Paper (CSP) for Kosovo.
