The system will monitor and mine internet resources and EU initiatives to acquire and process meaningful raw data about existing and sought skills, and entities offering and seeking jobs. State-of-the-art IT technologies will be used to empower the platform and achieve its goals, including advanced statistical and network and data analysis, machine learning and competency mining. On the basis of such analyses, recommendation tools for HRM, educational profile upskilling and digital policies will be made available to users. The system will offer its findings in an easy, human-centric with SSH principles, ready to use, and ethically correct form to both enterprises and individuals. Such objectives are highly relevant to the objectives of the call. In particular, it is expected that the project will contribute to the multi-faceted assessment of the labor market status through its data acquiring and analysis tools.
