Trends in VET policy in Europe 2010-12 - Progress towards the Bruges communiqué: Attention has clearly focused on helping young people remain in, and return to, education and training through work-based learning routes.

Czech Republic – The EQF and Czech qualifications: The existing classification system for Czech qualifications awarded in initial education, the KKOV (Classification of Educational Qualification Types), and the levels in the NSK (National Register of Vocational Qualifications) permit a referencing to the EQF.

: Europass is a portfolio of five documents, designed to make skills and qualifications clearly and easily understood across Europe.
: The European credit system for vocational education and training (ECVET) helps individuals who are trying to acquire a VET qualification to move between countries and gain access to lifelong learning. It does so by making it easier to transfer, to have recognised and to accumulate assessed learning outcomes. In cooperation with the European Commission, Cedefop provides technical and analytical support for the implementation of the ECVET Recommendation at the EU, national and sectoral levels.
: The European Qualifications Framework (EQF) is a common European reference framework. It acts as a translation grid which links countries' qualifications systems/framework. It covers qualifications at all levels and in all sub-systems of education and training (general and adult education, vocational education and training as well as higher education). Its main role is to make qualifications more readable and understandable across different countries and systems. In close cooperation with the European Commission, Cedefop provides analytical and coordination support for the implementation of the EQF and carries out a number of comparative studies and analysis on issues related to the implementation of the framework at EU, national and sectoral level.
