In this survey we present the near-optimal stochastic control problem according to some recent tools in the literature. In particular, we focus on the approach of a discretization of the noise values instead of the canonical time-discretization. This is the so called skeleton structure. This allows to obtain an -optimal control in non-Markovian systems (the main Theorem). A simple example illustrates the technique. The importance of the approach is emphasised in a final section on open problems related to more geometrical framework and discontinuous noise.
