3. You will learn to talk about die Fähigkeiten (the skills) you need for a job.
4. This topic also covers die Chancen (the opportunities) and die Ungleichheit (the inequality) in different systems.

Definition

The process of receiving or giving systematic instruction, especially at a school or university (education).
