/noticias.info/ On 31 January - 1 February 2005, the Luxembourg Presidency of the EU together with the European Commission has launched the implementation of Europass with a conference that has gathered in the Grand Duchy 300 representatives of education and training stakeholders, as well as social partners, from 32 European countries. Europass is a direct service to citizens that will help them to make their qualifications and competences clearly understood throughout Europe. It will therefore facilitate their mobility for both occupational and lifelong learning purposes.

“For all citizens that apply for a job or a learning opportunity, it is vital that their qualifications and competences are clearly understood and properly appreciated. Europass will help them to do so anywhere in Europe, as well as in their own Member State”, said Ján Figel’, European Commissioner for Education, Training, Culture and Multilingualism at the launch conference. The commissioner added: “Europass will be a direct service to citizens. Our objective is that by 2010 some 3 million citizens will have used Europass to improve their position on the European labour market and to take advantage of the European lifelong learning area”.

This initiative brings together INTO phpbb_a coordinated framework – under the “Europass” label and with a common logo – five transparency documents that cover qualifications and competences in a lifelong learning perspective. Besides the Europass CV, the other Europass elements focus on language skills (Europass Portfolio of Languages), mobility experiences for learning purposes (Europass Mobility) and qualifications in higher education (Europass Diploma Supplements) and vocational training (Europass Certificate Supplement).
