Donor: Education, Audiovisual and Culture Executive Agency (EACEA) / ERASMUS +

Project objectives : In accordance with the strategic framework defined in the Strategy for the Development of Education in the Republic of Serbia until 2030 and the commitment of the Republic of Serbia to join the European Union, the main goal of this project is to further improve transparency and comparability of the national qualifications systems as well as to encourage dialogue and develop social partnership in the field of education.

Within this project, activities will be implemented in order to connect the NQFS Register with the Europass online platform, such as: continuing the process of entering data on qualifications into the NQFS Register in Serbian and English, creating technical solutions for connecting the NQFS Register with the Europass online platform and promoting the NQFS and the EQF, which implies encouraging their implementation by social partners.

Connecting the NQFS Register with the Europass online platform will, inter alia, ensure transparency and comparability of the qualifications system of Serbia at the international level. This will contribute to building trust between the national qualifications system and qualifications systems of different European countries as well as to better quality of information on the possibilities of continuing education and mobility through education and labor market systems in Serbia and different (European) countries.

The implementation of this project will also support the use of the European Qualifications Framework by relevant social partners such as: the Chamber of Commerce and Industry of Serbia, the National Employment Service and other employment agencies, quality assurance bodies, educational institutions (schools and universities) as well as other public and private institutions interested in transparency and comparability of qualifications and learning outcomes.
