Skills are the ability and capacity to act and be able to use one’s knowledge in a responsible way to achieve a goal. Future Skills are an emerging concept based on the theory of competence and action, which form a holistic concept, involving the mobilization of knowledge, skills, attitudes, and values to meet complex demands. The NextSkills study distinguishes between three different types of skills: learning and growth skills which refer to an individual’s development process, design and innovation skills which refer to an individual’s capacity to deal with a certain object, task, or assignment in a new, creative way, and co-creation skills which refer to an individual’s way to productively shape their social environment and relation to the world.
