scope:

This specification defines refinements to the EuroLMAI model for representing the Europass DS. The Europass Diploma Supplement Application Profile of EuroLMAI (in brief: ""EuroLMAI Europass DS-AP""), in full compliance with the Europass requirements, focuses on the expression of information regarding the qualification awarded to a learner upon completion of a formal educational programme. The proposed profile is needed for the general purposes of: - the exploitation of academic achievements abroad: in continuing education or in seeking job opportunities - the admission of students or graduates in home and European universities: acknowledgment of credits or transfer of credits accumulated in home institutions moving from one university to another - the expression of the level, content and nature of qualifications to potential employers both nationally and at a European level - the enhancement of internal and European student mobility, from a university to another, or from one branch of studies to another - the proper integration of foreign workers into a country's employment setting - the normalisation of higher education qualifications, either in academic or non academic paths - the establishment of good practices in the recognition procedures of qualifications among Higher Education Institutions
