2.3 Unit 2: Europass<br />

The Europass is a single portfolio enabling citizens to provide proof of their<br />

qualifications and skills clearly and easily anywhere in Europe. It comprises five<br />

documents designed at European level to improve the transparency of qualifications.<br />

The Europass is one of the EU's three main instruments to support mobility. It is a<br />

portfolio of five documents and enables citizens to provide proof of their qualifications<br />

and skills clearly and easily in the Member States of the EU, the candidate countries<br />

(Bulgaria, Croatia, Romania and Turkey) and Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway and<br />

Switzerland. It thus complements the Ploteus site, launched in 2002, which contains<br />

information on education and vocational training opportunities throughout Europe, as<br />

well as the European vocational training framework which is currently being<br />

implemented.<br />
