"Given the current challenges that European societies face, it is crucial that higher education institutions remain well-funded, even at a time of economic crisis. Indeed, they must be capable of providing people with the skills and knowledge needed for tomorrow’s labour markets. We consider it essential to ensure that the skills taught are truly relevant to the realities of the labour market and enable graduates to gain employment in a field for which their degree has prepared them. Only careful monitoring of graduates’ employment outcomes and improving the quality and availability of internationally comparative data on graduates, as proposed by the Commission, will help higher education institutions better to fulfil their function and adapt curricula to labour market needs. Furthermore, we believe it vital for small and medium-sized enterprises to be more involved with higher education institutions by means of a systematic dialogue, in order to improve curricula and their content. For students, quality traineeships can be a way to gain entrance to the labour market and see how they can best apply their skills and knowledge in practice."@en1
