The eSkills Malta Foundation has been entrusted with a number of mandates relating to digital skills. One of the main national concerns is the participation of certain groups in society.​

The Foundation recognises that there is a need to broaden the range of coding or coding-related digital skills in Malta and increase the accessibility to such skills; increase the pool of persons with higher basic or advanced digital skills; develop a larger pool of persons that are better equipped for their future education or employment or to increase their quality of digital life through the use of coding, coding-related or basic or advanced digital skills and also educate and raise awareness on the importance of coding and digital skills for the use in their careers.

As per previous years, eSkills Malta Foundation contracted Training Providers for the setting up of training sessions/events or information session events to be held between September 2021 and December 2021​.
