Abstract
Non cognitive skills (NCS) are considered a specific subset of the so-called soft skills focused on behaviors and attitudes. Employers and human resources ex- perts agree on their importance for employability, prioritizing this type of skills versus specific knowledge or skills for an occupation. Albeit its importance, the present scenario is hindered by the lack of homogeneity in terminology and concepts as well as the absence of widely used standards. The Skills Match project has contributed to solve this situation, firstly creating a solid NCS framework which, in the end, enables a new approach to analyze the demand of skills in specific occupations with open data from big EU initiatives like ESCO or OVATE. This new approach and the results of data analysis allows us to explain the most demanded and recommended NCS for ICT job positions, which will allow teachers to adapt the students’ training.
