"− The recent economic and financial crisis has highlighted the weak spots of the European economic and social model: since the first effects of the crisis made themselves felt on the labour markets in 2008, Europe has lost 5.6 million jobs. There are currently around 23 million unemployed in the EU, accounting for 9.5% of the active population, with grave implications for both growth and welfare in Europe. Equally disturbing are the difficulties encountered by some employers in recruiting staff, especially for highly skilled posts. Therefore, in view of the continuing negative effects of the crisis in Europe, it is now a priority to reinforce human capital by updating skills. The Member States have set the ambitious objective of a 75% employment rate by 2020. In order to achieve this ambitious objective, I believe that the following are essential: the reduction of administrative burdens and red tape for SMEs in order to create jobs; further progress on the mutual recognition of qualifications as between the EU and third countries; closer cooperation between educational institutions and the world of business."@en1
