WHY COMPETENCE CERTIFICATION?
Since 2014 EFCoCert (European Foundation for Competence Certification) is committed to support implementation of EU Education policies & lifelong learning objectives and horizon, in which:
- Job profiles appear, evolve, vanish so quickly that formal training system / offer cannot follow
- Lifelong learning is essential to adapt to a constantly changing labour world
- Soft skills and side abilities become more important than diploma and CV for a good match
- Non-formal & informal learning are key EU priorities, calling for recognition / validation
- Knowing doesn’t mean ability to do, apply, perform, achieve – competence does
- Competence is now understood as “ability to apply knowledge and skills to achieve intended results”
- Achieving intended results by doing, irrelevant how you learned, is the only relevant finality
