Description:

The Qualifica Passport is a technological instrument for recording the qualifications and skills acquired or developed throughout an adult's life and providing guidance on learning paths. 

This tool allows the user to access to all possibilites of qualifications avaliabe according to his/her needs/expectations. The main goal of this GP is to upskill/motivate people to lifelong learning.  

The online tool is promoted by ANQEP (National Agency for Qualification and Vocational Education and Training) and it’s used by the Adult Education Centres in Portugal.

This tool can be used by any learner as long as they register on the platform. In practical terms, it is more aimed at people looking for a professional qualification and for people who dropped out school early. 

It collects biographical information (about schooling and education, age, gender, professional situation, hobbies) to understand and build the profile of the participant and propose a qualification path. 

This tool is used at a national level already, but it only gives answer to a specific profile. This way, to be transferable, it should be adapted to other contexts. 

The GP deals with the following diversity types (with regard to Erasmus+ priorities): Barriers to education, (individuals struggling to perform in education and training systems for various reasons, early school-leavers, NEETs and low-skilled adults may face barriers).
