Progress report on the implementation of the Council Recommendation on a European approach to micro-credentials for lifelong learning and employability

This report examines how European countries are introducing micro-credentials, which record assessed learning from short courses or other small units of study. Drawing on a survey covering all 27 EU Member States, Iceland, Liechtenstein and Norway, it tracks how the 2022 Council Recommendation is being put into practice across higher education, vocational training and employment systems. It looks at how countries define, fund, quality assure and recognise micro-credentials.
