Improve the system of matching supply and demand for skills in the short and medium term (over the next 3-5 years), thus strengthening the employability of young people and adults and improving economic competitiveness.
1. Set up at UCD and USJ national structures responsible for prospecting and anticipating labor market needs in terms of skills by July 2013.
