Relevant EU initiatives• European Sector Skills Councils:
Platform at European level for improving skills intelligence, highlighting skills mismatches and for shaping the educational and training offer correspondingly.
Such Sector Skills Councils exist already for the Textile/clothing/leather sector, and Commerce.
• Skills Panorama:
Comprehensive and user-friendly central access point for information and intelligence on skill needs in occupations and sectors across Europe.
5
Relevant EU initiatives• ESCO:
ESCO is the multilingual classification of European Skills, Competences, Qualifications and Occupations.
It identifies and categorises skills and competences, qualifications and occupations relevant for the EU labour market and education and training, in 22 European languages.
The system provides occupational profiles showing the relationships between occupations, skills, competences and qualifications.
ESCO has been developed in an open IT format and is available for everyone to use free of charge.
It does not set up competence standards.

What a good SSA proposal should have taken into account:
Sector Skills Alliance should take into account work of European Sector Skills Council and ESCO if existing in relevant sector
If skills needs not identified yet then Alliance should include research institution competent in relevant sector
European umbrella organisations or National players with European outreach
Alliance should ensure recognition in partner countries during project or make it highly probable that this will happen afterwards
Dissemination to services counselling on professional orientation/career guidance
