QUALIFICATION RECOGNITION
The ENIC-NARIC France Centre is the national information centre for the academic
recognition of foreign qualifications. Affiliated to the CIEP since 2004, it promotes
international mobility by facilitating the interpretation of academic pathways.
It also actively contributes to the construction of the European Higher Education Area.
It promotes the EHEAs mobility tools (Diploma Supplement, ECTS credits, national and European certification
frameworks, etc.) and participates in the development of
tools supported by EHEA ministries, such as the European
Area of Recognition Manual, which was mentioned in the
2012 Bucharest Communiqu.
The promotion of these mobility tools acts as a support
for vocational integration. The ENIC-NARIC France Centre
collaborates with employers and public administrations to
raise awareness of good practices in the area of qualification recognition, so a given qualification can be appropriately interpreted during recruitment processes and/or entry
examination preparations.
