from the article:
‘…during the last decades the common understanding became that education is preparing
generations of graduates for whom the jobs do not yet exist. The same holds for developments in the agriculture, food and health sectors. It is not known what these sectors will look like in 2030 and beyond. We can make informed guesses, and we need to conduct scenario studies, but we are not sure which scenario will unfold.’
‘This 5CFC Model represents the idea that learning competence is the core of future-oriented competence. It is being influenced by competencies on two dimensions, the vertical dimension of disciplinary and interdisciplinary competence and self-management and career competence, and the horizontal dimension of personal-professional competence and social-professional competence.’
