Past Activities
The ESC TCL – now TCLF – has been active since 2011. Its activities have focussed on
different aspects:
One of the key priorities for the ESC TCL has been the development and
dissemination of sectoral knowledge, monitoring the constant changes of labour
market and training needs. A series of surveys and analysis on education- and
training-related themes has been therefore carried out, resulting in three analytical
reports:
A fourth report, based on the above analysis, details seven recommendations directed
at institutional, social and industry stakeholders at both European and national levels.
Reports are available for download in the Reports section.
the creation of this Web Portal, acting as a base for dissemination on activities and
achievements of the Council, gathering communication material and including
services available within the Council organisation (Wiki knowledge base, online
training facilities, skills matchmaking).
Regular production and distribution of sector-specific Newsletter
Promotional videos, to increase awareness of the sector and its attractiveness.
Other joint awareness-raising activities target directly the wider public: for instance, in
2014, the ESC TCLF has supported the translation from Dutch to French of the
Belgian Edugame aimed at youth and dedicated to textile, which is now available
online:
Annual Conferences
At the end of each year of activity, an Annual Conference has been organised,
gathering European Commission representatives, the Social Partners, the Industry
Skills Partnerships, sectoral stakeholders and the press.
The 2011 Conference marked the official launch of the European Skills Council for
