Given the growing importance of Information and Communication
Technolo-
gies (ICT) in the context of the Global Economy and the enormous
potential
of this sector , there is a need for a common framework that
enables ICT
Professionals to describe and develop their capabilities and
which allows
companies and employers to identify which individuals who
possess the
competences they require.
The European e-Competence Framework (e-CF) is a reference
framework of
competences applied within the Information and Communication
Technology
(ICT) Sector. This Framework can used and understood by ICT User
and Sup-
ply Companies, ICT Practitioners, Managers and Human Resources
(HR) De-
partments, the Public Sector, Educational and Social partners
across Europe.
In order to achieve a consensus and useful results at National
Level, the in-
volvement of ICT Sector Players and Stakeholders from
Business, Policy Making and Education is crucial and
necessary.
