RECOGNITION OF SKILLS. Regarding the subject of recognition, i.e. skills or qualifications, the purposes for which recognition can take place are different, as well as the stakeholders granting recognition. A first consideration around the nature of recognition is what is being recognised, whether these are skills or qualifications. At the level of the recognition of skills, it is self-evident that qualifications (a key formal recognition mechanism) only ever recognise a portion of somebody's skills. Typically, qualifications acquired through learning at school or through work-based learning/apprenticeships are focused on what has been learned through a formal curriculum, although increasingly curricula and qualifications have been broadened to take into account transversal and ‘soft’ skills (not least through the identification of knowledge, skills and competences which lies at the heart of the European Qualification Framework), and systems to validate non-formal and informal learning (leading to, e.g., competence certification) are also weakening the connection between school curricula and qualifications. Nonetheless, since qualifications are unlikely to ever have a complete coverage of an individual's competences, employers make use of de facto practices to recognise skills in addition to qualifications.
