Almost three quarters of people in the EU live in fear of a cyberattack. The new European Cybercrime Centre is intended to aid prosecution and restore confidence.
===> Every day, an estimated 1 million people worldwide are victims of cybercrime. <===
The resulting financial loss suffered every year throughout the world totals approximately $388 billion. But now the European Commission has said enough is enough. A key part of its defense strategy is the European Cybercrime Centre (EC3), which is currently being set up at Europol's headquarters in The Hague and is set to open in a few weeks' time.

Avez-vous l’impression que, dans la société, on considère les gens qui sont doués dans des matières intellectuelles comme étant plus intelligents que les autres? En fait, une croyance véhiculée dans la société veut qu’il n’existe qu’un seul type d’intelligence, soit l’intelligence du raisonnement logique et ce type d’intelligence est mesurable sur l’échelle de QI. Cette croyance implique que si un individu fait preuve de ce type d’intelligence, il est donc intelligent et s’il n’en fait pas preuve, il ne l’est pas. Via juandoming

In this context industry-based training and certification is part of the solution to reduce skills shortages and mismatches and thereby unemployment in general. However, we are currently faced with some strong inhibitors and constraints to make this happen. Starting a career as ICT practitioner or advancing a career towards those areas of highest demand is constrained by the fact that the ICT certification world remains un-transparent with thousands of different certificates, ranging from technical ones (almost every ICT provider offers some), those offered by foundations in information management to high end certificates. Moreover they seem to live in a parallel universe to that of vocational and higher education.

The European Commission has launched their latest Youth Employment Package requesting a guarantee from all Member States that every young person receives a quality offer of employment or training within four months of leaving school, or of being unemployed. The proposal will make full use of EU funding and in particular the European Social Fund (ESF), which was set up to reduce the differences in prosperity and living standards across EU Member States and regions.
The new Youth Employment Package is part of the initiative Rethinking Education - designed to reduce the youth unemployment rate. Research has shown that the figure is close to 23 % across the European Union, yet more than 2 million vacancies remain unfilled.
