DEPS-Skills is a modern e-learning platform designed to develop 10 key soft skills essential for career growth and labor market integration. Through interactive training in emotional intelligence, negotiation and entrepreneurship, communication, professional ethics, career and time management, digital literacy, critical thinking, creative problem-solving, and cultural intelligence with teamwork, learners gain practical knowledge for real-world success. Built on Moodle, the platform features gamified elements, self-assessment tests, and engaging digital content, making learning dynamic, accessible, and effective for adult learners seeking to enhance their professional skills.
