PACT 4 SKILLS - CCI PARTNERSHIP

The European Commission has formulated an ambitious plan for the next five years to define new skill sets for our Cultural Creative Sectors and Industries (CCSI), the PACT 4 SKILLS - CCI PARTNERSHIP

There is a strong potential in boosting joint action to maximise the impact of skills investment. Skills policies and actions are shared between many players.Companies, workers, education and training providers, national, regional and local authorities, chambers of commerce and employment services are among the ones who contribute to making up- and reskilling a reality. Concerted efforts can bring clarity to individuals and companies throughout the value chain, reduce costs and focus on priorities.

A strong Social Europe for Just Transitions

This is why the EuropeanCommission is launching a Pact for Skills — a shared engagement and approach to skills development. The Pact is firmly anchored in the principles of the European Pillar of Social Rights and supports the goals of the Green Deal and the digital transformation, as set out in the Commission communication “A strong Social Europe for Just Transitions”. The Pact aims to mobilise and incentivise private and public stakeholders to take concrete action for the upskilling and reskilling of people of working age, and, when relevant, pool efforts in the partnerships.

This effort is based on the European Skills Agenda which aims to help individuals and businesses develop a wider range of more effective skills. The goal of this European Skills Agenda is not only to up-skill and re-skill European citizens in a framework of lifelong learning, but also to strengthen creative and entrepreneurial competences, to put these newly acquired and much needed skill sets into practice.
