Labeling 21st century skills for education - ICD-HR21
Critical thinking, Creativity, Collaboration, Communication: these 21st century skills, commonly referred to as the 4Cs, have become educational priorities to be acquired or improved in addition to the technical skills usually imparted in schools.
TheInternational Institute for Competency Development(ICD-HR21), in collaboration with the AFNOR Group, offers educational and training establishments the opportunity to be assessed for 21st century competencies (soft skills). Our specialized multicultural pedagogical experts assess your educational institution on the basis of the skills students need to succeed in the 21st century.
The aim of the labeling process is to provide an independent assessment of your education and training institution, to evaluate the ability of programs and staff to facilitate the use of the 4Cs by students. The ultimate aim is to enable today's students, tomorrow's employees and tomorrow's entrepreneurs to innovate in order to meet new market expectations and solve potential problems.
