Refuskills - Qualification Assessments for Refugee Training and Employment: Fasttrack with ECVET and Skillsbank
Description of the project
Although the issue of migration is an extremely important problem for EU countries, the migration of qualified people brings along different problems. For example, for an immigrant, the declaration of documents, skills, qualifications and certificates is of great importance. The Refuskills project uses the experiences and system of Skillsbank (a project where skills are identified and detailed) to meet the urgent needs for rapid competency assessment and expression for refugees and other migrants.
