Europass
Europass It is a 5 document file which helps jobseekers to present their skills and qualifications effectively and clearly and makes easier for employers to recruit workers from different European Economic Area countries.
This tool makes possible that:
- Jobseekers present their skills and qualifications effectively and clearly in order to find a job.
- Employers understand jobseekers skills and qualifications.
- Education and training authorities establish and show the content of curricula.
Two of these documents -CV and Language Passport- can be accessed freely and filled by the jobseeker. The remaining two are issued by Education authorities. .
