EUCIP Core - at European level recognized IT qualification - is an answer exactly to this demand as its competence framework strongly focuses on the business skills related to the fundamental e-skills. The certificate was established by CEPIS (Council of European Professional Informatics Societies) and has been used with success already in seven European countries.
IT-Shape LLL LdV project aims to adapt EUCIP Core certificate in the Hungarian Vocational Education.
