Conclusions and Recommendations • Soft skills are equally important as technical skills.
• Thus, all of us need to make sure that job seekers and workers have both soft and technical skill.
• What needed now is not necessarily needed for the future; and vice versa. • We need to prepare future needs from now.
• Mapping of jobs and skills need in the world of work is needed to develop education and training programmes that can provide future needs. • Do mapping on a regular basis.
• Carry out dialogue on a regular basis.
• Require all relevant parties: government, employers and job seekers and workers.
