Skills intelligence tool is built around two main pillars. 

The data part is powered by a set of indicators, which are the building blocks of skills intelligence visualisations. Indicators originate from various sources. Cedefop's research and analysis produce several datasets which utilise: 

  • the Skills forecast, 
  • the European skills and jobs survey, and Skills OVATE. 

They are complemented by official statistics produced by Eurostat, such as the European Labour Force Survey (EU-LFS), European Survey on Income and Living Conditions (EU-SILC) and ICT usage in households and by individuals.

Information covers areas, such as future employment growth, unemployment rate, or digital skills level. This information can usually be broken down by occupation, country, age, gender, or sector. The dashboards generate narrative-driven sets of visualisations, bringing together the most interesting data on various topics, such as occupations, countries, sectors, or so-called themes, like digitalisation and technology, skills and learning, or future jobs.
