The launch took place at Accenture “The Dock”.The purpose of the National Skills Council (NSC) is to make Ireland a leader in anticipating and responding to the rapidly changing skills needs across all sectors. Facing the possibility of major changes in the relationships we have with our key trading partners, including the UK and the USA, we have to adopt the best policies to fortify us for the challenges which lie ahead, and ensure that we can nurture, develop and retain talent.
