I believe it is useful as some students might be ¨lost¨ in knowing a bit more about their skills and why they are positive to endeavour in their future career.
I think they don’t choose your job for you but help to clarify ideas and have a different insight about the jobs the student would like to perform in the future.
It does help you organize yourself personally and discover what skills you need to develop the best career for you.
It helps you realise that there are other options available which are accessible as well.

Students could find important basic information on job opportunities in order to start thinking their future job in an easy way.
The job profiles available help to choose a job. Thanks to multitude of profiles you can exclude ones and focus on others
The list of skills and competences help in identify possible working carrier, but it’s important to fill this section with a tutor’s help because there are so many knowledge, skills and competences within you can choose that could lost yourself.
The databases of crowdfunding portals and online courses is the most attractive and well made. I know crowdfunding, I used it before, but I didn’t still find a portal online that resume a huge number of crowdfunding platform. There are for every kind of interest/business!!!

This section is a tool to start entering into the working world. The job profiles section is a good one but I think it should be enriched with more profiles.

Description of job profiles differs from one country to another. And all of them are in English.
Apart from that, this section is a good source of information for studets.

The section "Skills and jobs" is great and the profile descriptions are very good. What a pity it is only in English? Having French translations for the Belgian profiles is great.

Some profiles are common or could be common. Why not specify it? (e.g. on the profile of a web developer, add "also in Belgium" + link).

The digital database illustrating the job profiles, that are most requested at national and at European level, is really relevant and useful for teachers and students.

The toolkit 2 highlights the consistency between the skills required by the labour market and those provided by school education. That’s so important.

The toolkit is relevant and useful as it provides information for us and students about the most required jobs in the market, about skills and competences needed to succeed in the market.

The job market is always difficult to understand for a student, and so a section about this I think is really important , respources on line are surely easy to read..
For a student is important to know the job profiles , not only to choose a job , but to have ideas about the labor market trend.Sometimes we have no idea about the requests of labour market.

I think the site is useful: it gives reliable information on the most in demand jobs and the skills they require. Students should take into consideration the demand in the market when deciding on their career. The best way to find a new job is to know what jobs are most in demand.

For some jobs, the description is very long and accurate, while for others it is too short and important details are omitted. A carpenter is as important as a surgeon...their job description should be equal in lengths and importance.
