21st Century Skills

The Glossary of Education defines 21st Century Skills as follows: 

“The term 21st century skills refers to a broad set of knowledge, skills, work habits, and character traits that are believed— by educators, school reformers, college professors, employers, and others—to be critically important to success in today’s world.” 

In simple terms, 21st Century Skills refer to the skills that are required to enable individuals to face the challenges of the 21st-century world that is globally active, digitally transforming, collaboratively moving forward, creatively progressing, seeking competent human-resource and quick in adopting changes.
