The SKILLSNET e-bulletin August 2017 Issue has just been send to skillsnet members and published here in a pdf format.

The highlight of the August 2017 issue of the Skillsnet e-bulletin refers to the release of the first full version of the European classification of Skills, Competences, Occupations and Qualifications (ESCO).

The Commission has launched the first full version of the European classification of Skills, Competences, Occupations and Qualifications (ESCO). The classification is available in 26 languages (the 24 EU languages, Icelandic and Norwegian). ESCO facilitates the dialogue between labour market and the education/training sector by providing a common language that could help overcome labour market imbalances and increase occupational and geographical mobility in the EU.
