To identify and anticipate future skill needs and potential skill mismatches, Cedefop undertakes various European level research activities. It produces regular skill supply and demand forecasts for Europe and analyses the potential labour market imbalances. Cedefop also investigates skill and competence needs in selected sectors and explores a common European approach to enterprise surveys on changing skill needs. Cedefop also animates Skillsnet, a network of experts in the field of early identification of skills needs. More...

Cedefop actively supports the development of lifelong learning strategies in Europe and the Member States.
The Centre monitors and reviews trends and policy developments that are related to lifelong learning. It provides policy-makers with data and analysis and offers opportunities for knowledge-sharing and best practice exchange in education and training. More...

The 2002 Copenhagen declaration set up a process of cooperation in vocational education and training (VET) in Europe, involving governments, social partners and EU institutions, in which EU Member States, Norway and candidate countries participate. Since 2004, Cedefop is mandated to report on how countries are progressing towards achieving commonly agreed VET policy goals.
Whereas previous communiqués focused on general short-term objectives for VET (Maastricht, Helsinki, Bordeaux communiqués), in 2010 a long-term vision for VET in 2020 with a commitment to implement a series of actions by 2014 were agreed (Bruges communiqué). Cedefop’s reports, 'Trends in VET policy in Europe 2010-2012: Progress towards the Bruges Communiqué' and ‘Stronger VET for better lives Cedefop’s monitoring report on vocational education and training policies 2010-14' show how these short-term actions have been implemented in EU Member States and candidate countries.
