The essay deals from a legal point of view with the issue of skill mismatch and the possible remedies that can be identified at the regulatory level and the renewed consideration of matching between supply and demand. In particular, it proposes an updated vision of the intermediation in order to face the new needs of alignment of the offered and demanded competences, also thanks to a greater collaboration between public and private actors. It proposes a broad meaning of intermediation, including the function of alignment between skills coming out of training systems and skills required by companies. In this context, the active contribution that enterprises and the social partners can make dynamically to the analysis of professional needs is also analysed in order to develop a greater connection with the public systems of classification of professions and the alignment of training provision with new professional needs. It also analyses the important contribution that s.c. “micro-credentialsµ can provide for greater flexibility and modularity of tertiary education and for overcoming the skill mismatch. In this context, the current limitations of the dual apprenticeship system are also identified and some changes are proposed to relaunch the third level apprenticeship.
