The consortium, made up of members from Belgium, Greece, Northern Macedonia, Romania and Spain, brings together national JA organizations, companies, as well as technical and vocational education (TVET) providers. The EMPASS project aims to develop a new micro-credential to help young people gain and validate essential employability skills and at the same time address the evolving demands of employers across Europe. A micro-credential is the record of the learning outcomes that a learner has acquired following a small volume of learning. The learning experiences leading to the delivery of a micro-credential are designed to provide the learner with specific knowledge, skills and competences that respond to societal, personal, cultural or labor market needs (according to the National Qualifications Authority).
