Abstract:
Nelson Mandela said that education is the most powerful weapon you can use to change the world. Nothing more relevant in today's Europe, dealing with extremely diverse events, the effects of which are sometimes difficult to discern. The current economy poses to human resources, seen as factors that ensure that objectives are met, the need for on-going training to deal with different, and sometimes harsh, realities. Additionally, the complexity of socio-economic processes generates the need to be adaptable, creative, innovative, engaged and responsible. These elements can be ensured through a certain level of education, through a tailored and adaptable career path. Europe's strategy of becoming a smart, sustainable and inclusive economy translates into five goals, one of them focusing on education. This paper aims to surprise on one hand how the Europe 2020 strategy regarding education has been implemented at national level, and secondly to highlight the challenges Romanian higher education goes through when we consider its finality: employability of graduates.
