Portugal INCoDe.2030: National Digital Competence Initiative
Description
Even though Portugal is close to the European median in terms of digital competences (15th in the DESI 2017 Index, Digital Economy and Society Index of the European Commission; Figure 1), it needs to reinforce basic Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) competences, especially in terms of human capital and internet usage levels, preventing them to stay at a worrying threshold. This is also true for specialists, who need to be able to make the most of the growing availability of jobs in the digital market.
