Welcome to The e-Skills Competences Consortium (eSCC)
As the global economy
becomes increasingly ICT-embedded, the competitiveness of the European economy
in turn becomes more reliant on the availability of professional eSkills.
Nonetheless, despite widely predicted shortages of e-Skills, private sector
certification and training continues to occupy an entirely separate domain from
public sector education policy. The result is that available resources and
expertise are not being productively used to confront this major economic
issue.
The eSCC has been set up to address this disconnect. By working with
policymakers, industry and other stakeholders eSCC aims to develop a framework
promoting the accreditation and/or endorsement of industry and other non-formal
certified training schemes and certification by public bodies.
The eSCC can claim a strong mandate for its activities, as outlined in the
Terms of Reference.
As the global economy
becomes increasingly ICT-embedded, the competitiveness of the European economy
