Conference Report: Improving Skills: Evidence from Secondary Analysis of International Surveys
The Improving Skills conference, which took place November 15-16, 2012 in Cyprus, was organised by the
European Commission, DG Education and Culture (DG EAC), in close cooperation with the Cypriot Presidency and with the input from CRELL. The aim of the conference was to generate and disseminate knowledge derived from recent
secondary analysis of large scale international surveys and assessments such as PISA, TIMSS, ICCS, ESLC and PIRLS. Participants of the conference discussed policy goals and areas requiring further research in the field of improving skills,
both in terms of improving basic skills (such as literacy and reading competencies) and transversal skills
(enhancing employability, social inclusion and civic participation).
