Skilled Labour Supply

Region Västra Götaland strives to promote a well-functioning labour market where education results within the right expertise are utilised, and everybody has the opportunity to develop their skills. One challenge involved in our mission to develop the region is ensuring that businesses and the public sector have access to the skills they need and that youths are trained to work in fields where job opportunities will exist in the future. Successful matching between a skilled labour supply and employers’ demand for expertise is needed to meet this challenge.

Our work in connection with skills provision falls within the framework of the commission assigned to us by the Swedish national government known as Kompetensplattform Västra Götaland and focuses on four separate areas:

  • Influencing Strategy
  • Initiatives & Development Projects
  • Interchange of Knowledge & Experience
  • Prognoses & Data to Support Decision-making
