This report is part of the 2023 update of the European Inventory on the validation of non-formal and informal learning provides a comprehensive overview of validation practices across Europe, covering 32 systems in EU-27 Member States and EFTA countries.
The European inventory is compiled in cooperation with the European Commission and ETF. The inventory was endorsed by the Council recommendation of 2012 on validation and works together with the European guidelines as a tool to support countries in developing and implementing validation arrangements.
A rich source of information, the inventory informs dialogue and learning between countries and stakeholders developing and implementing validation in Europe. Our key objective is to support Member States so that more learners and workers can acquire and make visible new skills, which will support their career and further learning and improve their quality of life.
