Do you have professional experience but no certificate to prove it?
If you have at least three years of work experience or a minimum of 300 hours of training, you can obtain official recognition of your professional skills. And thus increase your chances of finding a job, improving your working conditions and continuing training.
The lack of accreditation of many workers who have acquired their professional skills through experience can become an obstacle that hinders their labour integration, professional promotion and social recognition.
In this way, the Procedures for Evaluation and Accreditation of Competences (PEAC) allow to obtain an official accreditation to those people who have proof of work experience or who have received non-formal training, that is, training carried out outside the official educational system, and directly related to the professional qualification to be certified.
The PEAC enables citizens to be recognized and accredited the professional skills acquired through work experience and other forms of learning, making it possible for them to obtain the Professional Training degree or the Certificate of Professionalism linked to that qualification.
In support of the General Directorate of Vocational Training, with employed and unemployed people, CNAI carries out accompanying actions for the accreditation of professional skills acquired by professional experience or by having completed non-formal training. These measures can include:
- Information and dissemination of the features of the procedure
- Guidance on the qualifications most appropriate to the applicant's profile.
- Help in designing the applicant's portfolio.
- Assistance for enrolling in the procedure.
- Verifying the requirements of people enrolled.
These actions are part of the Recovery, Transformation and Resilience Plan, funded by the Ministry of Education and Vocational Training and by the European Union – Next Generation EU.
