This web site starts from the assumption that, invest in people and knowledge is much more profitable than invest only in the economic factors. Knowledge is seen as the basic and most important source of competitive advantage for the company.

 

The cost of knowledge is high but the cost of ignorance is much higher.

 

Europe's economy cannot survive in a sustainable way without a strong and profoundly reshaped industrial base. New technologies have dramatically changed our life and our economy in the past 20 years. Political systems collapsed, new players emerged on the markets, as well as new materials, new technologies and workers who are better skilled than ever. The wind of change is blowing at a time when Europe is facing a severe economic and social crisis. But this situation and the changes are also an opportunity. Human capital and education are at the centre of a knowledge economy. More than ever, our level of education and skills will determine future social cohesion, prosperity and sustainability. Europe was once a beacon of educational performance, and a model for other countries to follow, but much has happened in recent decades to undermine Europe’s education record. Too few resources are spent, too little self-responsibility is given to our schools and universities, and too little attention is being paid to other regions that are rapidly advancing their own education systems. Against this backdrop, European Academy Network deems it of utmost importance to invests in human capital and mobility. Furthermore, our association supports the proposal made by the European Commission of New skills for new jobs that proposes series of actions to match skills with vacancies, to organise skills assessments on a permanent basis, to pool the efforts of Member States and other international organisations, and to develop better information on future needs. -If you are looking to invest in people & knowledge. -If you want to foster "New skills and new jobs". -If you are interested in supporting candidates living and working abroad.
