Feasibility Workshop on European Skill Needs Forecasting (1/2006)-EN  

The Human Resource Development Authority of Cyprus in the framework of its participation in the European Network on Early Identification of Skill Needs (Skillsnet), hosted a two-day European Workshop attended by experts in Skill Needs Forecasting. Co-organisers of the workshop were the European Centre for the Development of Vocational Training (Cedefop), the Human Resource Development Authority of Cyprus (HRDA) and the Research Centre for Education and the Labour Market at the Maastricht University (ROA).

The workshop, which took place in October 2005 in Pafos, was attended by 30 experts from the European Union (Austria, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Holland, Ireland, Italy, Poland, Portugal, Romania, United Kingdom) and international organisations.

The workshop aimed at exchanging views and making suggestions concerning the adoption of a common approach to European skill needs forecasting in terms of methods and data. It was concluded that the convergence of methodologies being used by different countries is feasible and that Cedefop should continue with this initiative and coordinate further steps. These will aim at creating the necessary mechanisms for the launching of a European skill needs forecasting exercise as well as enhancing the existing infrastructure for forecasting in the Member States
