Details
Draft Law No. 9630 on Improvement of the National Qualifications System provides for the creation of a Unified Register of Qualifications based on the Classifier of Occupations, the Handbook of Qualification Characteristics of Employee Occupations and the Register of Qualifications and synchronization with other databases to ensure that the process of exchanging and accessing information on professional qualifications is fast, transparent and meets the needs of the labor market in real time.
