We encourage all interested refugees, migrants, and asylum seekers to apply for the European Qualifications Passport (EQPR), a tool that supports the recognition of their qualifications and facilitates their integration into society and the labor market.
The European Qualifications Passport for Refugees (EQPR) is a tool that facilitates the recognition of educational and professional qualifications of refugees, even when the necessary documents are not available. It offers refugees the opportunity to document their qualifications for the purpose of entering the labor market or continuing their studies.
Who can apply:
-
- Persons with recognized refugee status
-
- Persons with recognized asylum seeker status
-
- Persons entitled to temporary protection (as per the Temporary Protection Directive, Council Directive 2001/55/EC)
The evaluation process includes completing a questionnaire and an interview with qualified assessors. The evaluation is free of charge, and the benefits of the EQPR are twofold: both host societies and refugees benefit, promoting faster integration.
Information about the EQPR and the application process can be found here: https://www.coe.int/eqpr and is available in the following languages: English, Arabic, French, German, Greek, Spanish, Italian, Dari, Ukrainian, Polish, Romanian.
THE APPLICATION DEADLINE IS UNTIL OCTOBER 20th
