Understanding technological change and skill needs: skills surveys and skills forecasting

The European Centre for the Development of Vocational Training (Cedefop) produced a series of practical guides on the topic of understanding technological change and skill needs. This guide is the first of this series, covering the skills intelligence methods of surveys and forecasting. The report begins with an overview of how technological change impacts skills trends and intelligence, then provides concrete examples of methods of skills surveys and skills forecasting, as well as a guidance on how to choose the best method for a given context.
