Develop the skills of tomorrow

Skills development is one of the major challenges in a changing world of work, shaped by digitalisation and profound transformations in job profiles.
A key issue in this context is the growing skills gap – the mismatch between the qualifications that workers possess and those required by employers.

To actively address this challenge, ADEM has been a key partner of the Skillsdësch since 2020 – a national initiative led by the Ministry of Education, the Ministry of Labour, ADEM, social partners and businesses.

The goal of this collaboration is to identify current and future skills needs, define emerging professions, and develop and implement targeted training measures.

A significant milestone was the participation in the OECD study "Luxembourg Skills Strategy", which laid the foundation for a long-term strategic approach to vocational training.

Based on the study's findings – and as part of the government's mandate to promote reskilling and upskilling – ADEM is investing heavily in labour market analysis and the anticipation of future qualification needs.

In this context, ADEM, in cooperation with economic stakeholders, has published ten sector studies, which are now integrated into the public dashboard JobInsights.lu.

This online tool provides jobseekers, employers and anyone interested with a data-driven overview of employment trends, in-demand occupations and required competencies, broken down by sector and kept up to date.

To effectively implement training measures, ADEM works closely with leading training providers, including the House of Training, the Chamber of Skilled Trades, the Chamber of Employees (LLLC), CNFPC, INL, the University of Luxembourg and the Digital Learning Hub.

These training offers target both jobseekers and employees and aim to strengthen technical expertise, transferable skills, and occupational capacity – in order to improve employability and support recruitment efforts of businesses.

In addition, ADEM has significantly expanded its offering of online training (eLearning). Jobseekers receive free access to a wide range of digital courses, while tailored training programs are developed to meet the specific needs of employers.
