Digital competences and employment policy

Digital competence connects education with the ability to participate in changing forms of work. In public policy, training is one part of a wider response that can also include mobility, employer support and opportunities for self-employment.

Valerii Babaiev and Iryna Babaieva's 2023 article distinguishes anti-crisis and digital directions in Ukrainian employment policy under wartime uncertainty. It discusses retraining, enterprise relocation, targeted employment measures and digital mechanisms for entrepreneurship support. The authors propose a centre for developing digital competences within the State Employment Service. That centre is a proposal in the article, not evidence that it was established.

This research provides a bridge between educational activity, labour-market adaptation and public administration. Its policy examples are dated and require rechecking before practical use. Related topics: professional qualification structure, continuing education, entrepreneurship and economic resilience.
