21st century skills are a broad set of knowledge, skills, work habits and character qualities to ensure well-being, participation and employment that are needed in our nowadays rapidly changing society. Befriend with the machines is one of the skills zones that are part of the 21st century skills. Befriend the machine skills need to be continuously increased, improved and changed due to the fast technology developments.

Peer-interviews with young people showed that not everybody is aware of their technical and digital skills, knowledge and attitude that they are using daily, neither are young people always aware that there are a lot opportunities that can help to develop Befriend the machine skills. Technical innovation development is fast, imaganing what 2030 will look like, will help in knowing what skills you need to devlop. Many young people can learn from friends, from games, from sports, from employers and so on.
