Abstract:
Previous studies have not discussed in detail the transformation
brought about on occupations and skills by the technical change. This
essay seeks to understand and explain the impact of Industry 4.0’s Key
Enabling Technologies (KETs) on the digital transformation process and
its effects on occupations and skills. Starting from literature findings
on how the knowledge, skills, and expertise required by the labour
market are changing, the article examines how the educational and
learning process should be adequate in order to benefit from them
and encourage new forms of employability.
