What is Europass

Whether you are planning to enrol in an education or training programme, looking for a job, or getting experience abroad, it is important to be able to make your skills and competences clearly understood.

Europass is a new way of helping people to:

• make their skills and qualifications clearly and easily understood in Europe (European Union, EFTA/EEA and candidate countries);
• move anywhere in Europe.

Europass consists of five documents:

• Two documents that you can fill in yourself;
• Europass curriculum vitae (CV),
• Europass Language Passport.
  
  
• Three other documents filled in and issued by competent organisations
• Europass Certificate Supplement,
• Europass Diploma Supplement,
• Europass Mobility.

Europass is supported by a network of National Europass Centres.

Europass has been established by the Decision No 2241/2004/EC of the European Parliament and the Council of 15 December 2004 on a single transparency framework for qualifications and competences.
