European Digital Skills Certificate (EDSC) Feasibility Study

In support of the implementation of the Action 9 of the Digital Education Action Plan, the JRC is carrying out a study on the European Digital Skills Certificate (EDSC) to help people have their digital skills quickly and easily recognised by employers, training providers and more.

The EDSC will be based on the European Digital Competence Framework (DigComp).

The study is mapping existing digital skills certification schemes in Europe and carrying out a gaps, needs and benefits analysis to understand the role and value of an EDSC, and how it would support recognition of digital skills in Europe.

It relies to a large part on Stakeholders’ Consultations. More information can be found on the EDSC stakeholder consultation page. There is also a Digital Skills Certification Community of Practice (CoP) hosted by All Digital.
