Over the past years no major reforms have taken place in Iceland related to skills and employability. 

However, following a 2019 framework legislation, Act No. 95/2019, on the competency of teachers and school leaders in heads in pre-schools, compulsory schools and upper secondary schools, licensed teachers may now move up and down all school levels from ISCED 0 through ISCED 2 levels. Regarding ISCED 3, more specific requirements are described for teaching in specific subjects.
