No major reforms have taken place in Iceland skills and employability the past years. 

However, following a 2019 framework legislation on the competency of teachers and school leaders in heads in pre-schools, compulsory schools and upper secondary schools (Act 95/2019) a transition period for all school levels has been the case since licenced teachers may now move up and down all school levels, although with more requirements for teaching in specific subjects in the upper-secondary school stages (ISCED 3 or grades 11, 12 and 13).
