Abstract

Previous research on how information and communication technologies (ICT) can support socio-economic inclusion processes for groups at risk of exclusion, namely migrants and youth at risk, provides evidence of the relationships between ICT and employability. For example, access and ability to use technology affect employability and also increase wage levels. Likewise, the rise of the internet has brought about major changes in how individuals look for jobs and the factors that shape their success, such as their (online) social networks. These findings have prompted new research to provide solid theory and evidence to better understand how ICT technologies, skills, applications, and usages can improve people’s employability, helping them to gain and sustain employment and thereafter progress, and to support policy development in the field of employability.
