Description
The event complemented and further developed the existing knowledge base in the field by exploring and discussing PES experiences and practices in:
- Skills assessment, including guidance and counselling, (self-)assessment procedures and tools, using Artificial Intelligence for matching – presentations from Le Forem (Belgium) and Pôle emploi (France);
- Skills validation and recognition, including PES cooperation with other institutions and partners – presentations from Bundesagentur für Arbeit (Germany) and UWV (the Netherlands);
- Micro-credentials, for example, to support employability by ensuring that information and advice on identifying and selecting micro-credentials is incorporated and validated into lifelong learning guidance services – presentations from Arbetsförmedlingen (Sweden) and Hrvatski Zavod za Zapošljavanje (Croatia).
The Seminar brought together representatives of 22 PES and the European Commission.
