We seek the essential soft skills in the 21<sup>st</sup> century including green skills and look into their cognitive and metacognitive background. Enlightening the soft skills’ dependence on metacognition, we conclude on a metacognition-based approach and suggest useful tools and strategies. The metacognitive approach of soft skills can be applied in a variety of educational contexts as a training paradigm to accelerate the inclusion and success of students, employees and citizens, especially those belonging in vulnerable groups like persons with disabilities.}, number={04}, journal={International Journal of Online and Biomedical Engineering (iJOE)}, author={Mitsea, Eleni and Drigas, Athanasios and Mantas, Panagiotis}, year={2021}, month={Apr.}, pages={pp. 121–132} }
