The 3 Parts of the SkillUp Toolkit

Transversal Skills

Here we focuses on the development of essential transversal skills. These skills play a pivotal role in empowering individuals to thrive in the dynamic and ever-changing labor market.

At the heart of our transversal skills approach is the fusion of two powerful frameworks: lifeComp and entreComp. By combining the strengths of these frameworks, we have curated a robust toolkit that encompasses a wide range of competencies essential for personal growth, professional success, and overall employability.

Transversal skills, also known as transferable or soft skills, go beyond technical expertise and encompass a set of abilities that can be applied across various domains and job roles. They are vital for adapting to new challenges, working collaboratively, and continuously learning and evolving.
