What Do e-Skills Mean To You?

 

Are you between 16 and 26, creative with technology and would like to win prizes?

Here at the European Commission we want to know what you think about e-Skills and how they can used to launch your career. Your entry could win you a start in the career of your dreams. Show us what you can do. You could win the following prizes:

  • An all-expenses paid trip to the Project Passion awards ceremony
  • Cash prizes of up to 2,150 euros
  • Xbox/Kinect
  • A Nokia Lumia smart phone
  • A paid internship at a global firm to get your career off to a flying start

 

What is the competition about?
We think of e-Skills as the ability to use technology. This might relate to any area of life such as something fairly simple like uploading a photograph, to the much more difficult act of writing code; from working in an office to being a designer and much more. Your entry needs to be in one of three categories:

  • e-Skills and me
  • e-Skills: jobs of the future
  • Creative e-Skills

How do you enter?
We want to see how creative you can be and not hold you back, so you can enter using any of the following formats:

  • A video of up to 3 minutes in length
  • A musical entry of up to 4 minutes in length
  • A written entry that is submitted digitally
  • A printed design entry such as a poster that is submitted digitally

Build a community
As you know, technology is not just about creating something, it is about connecting people too. So we would like you to build a community around your entry.
