Future-facing skills

Relevant skills for the tasks of tomorrow 

Young people preparing for the future and all its challenges will need to become proficient in completely new skills.

As globalisation and digitalisation spread, technical and digital skills are becoming as important as creativity, an entrepreneurial mindset or sustainable action. With this in mind, the TÜV SÜD Foundation supports an array of projects designed to communicate future-facing skills.
