The work carried out in WP2 “Skill Gaps Analysis” aimed at reaching a deeper understanding of key skill gaps of current and future Blue Cluster managers, emphasizing the mismatch between current training programs and current market needs, in both technical (e.g., digitalization, foreign language) and soft skills (e.g., problem-solving, interpersonal skills). It recommended a more practical and interdisciplinary training approach, emphasizing continuous learning and improved career prospects, particularly for young talents, encouraging training with multidisciplinary and integrated approaches.
