Introduction to the national qualifications database
In today’s interconnected world, recognising and comparing qualifications across borders is key to learning and labour mobility, skills development, and economic growth. National qualifications databases are central to this, enabling seamless implementation of qualifications frameworks and trusted, digital access to qualification data.
This training course equips you with the knowledge and skills to design, implement, and manage effective national qualifications databases. Following the European Interoperability Framework, the course explores four key dimensions in developing interoperable qualifications systems:
Regulatory: Legal foundations and trust in qualification data
Organisational: Governance, quality assurance, and structured processes
Semantic: Ensuring data clarity and consistency using the European Learning Model
Technical: Core functionalities like data verification, publication, and export
With five interactive modules, this course prepares you to modernise qualifications systems, enhancing the digitalisation of qualifications and boosting interoperability across borders. Your work will directly support recognition and mobility for learners and workers in a more connected education and training landscape.
