Proposal for a decision
Recital 2
(2) Differences in language, definitions, document formats, as well as assessment and qualification validation methods, all pose considerable challenges for individuals, employers and competent authorities. These challenges arise especially where individuals move between countries, including third countries, but also when looking for a new job or engaging in learning. Clear information and shared understanding isare necessary to address these challenges, while respecting subsidiarity and diversity and providing clarity on responsibilities.
