Why it matters

Any school can say it develops transversal skills. Few can demonstrate it.

EASEC accreditation provides the external, internationally recognised evidence that your school does — aligned with the European standards that universities, employers and families worldwide use as a reference for quality and relevance.

The seal is not a marketing asset. It is a verifiable statement — independently issued, publicly accessible, and backed by a framework that the labour market already recognises.

63%

of all jobs will require soft skills by 2030 — up from 53% in 2000.

WEF Future of Jobs 2025

67%

of employers prioritise soft skills over academic qualifications when hiring.

Two pathways to accreditation

Accredit your own programme
or adopt the EASEC curriculum.

EASEC accreditation is designed to meet your school where it is today — whether you already have a programme running or have not yet structured one. In both cases, the accreditation process, the quality seal and the public profile on easec.eu are exactly the same.

What your institution receives

Four concrete deliverables — from the day accreditation is granted.

EASEC accreditation is not a process that ends with a seal. It is an ongoing institutional asset — a verified public profile, a recognised quality seal, and structured evidence of your school's commitment to future-oriented education.

Public profile

Verified public profile on EASEC

Your school receives a dedicated public profile on EASEC — featuring your accredited programme, the validity period, developed competences and key institutional data. Visible to families, universities and employers worldwide.

Documented evidence

Structured evidence for institutional positioning

The accreditation process generates documented alignment of your programme with ESCO, EQF and WEF standards — ready to use in institutional communications, enrolment materials and collaboration conversations with universities.

Support throughout the period

Ongoing alignment support

Throughout the entire duration of your accreditation period, your school has access to EASEC alignment guidance and support — designed to foster continuous improvement without creating additional administrative burden for your academic team.

The process

A guided four-step process — from application to public recognition.

Every school follows the same structured pathway — whether you have an existing skills programme or are adopting the EASEC recommended curriculum for the first time. Each step is fully supported, with no additional administrative burden for your academic team.

No programme redesign required. For schools with existing initiatives, the process documents and validates what you already do — structured against recognised European standards.

Submit an institutional application to explore eligibility for programme accreditation — including whether your school has an existing skills programme or wishes to adopt the EASEC recommended curriculum.

Share information about your school's skills development approach so EASEC can assess alignment with ESCO, EQF and WEF Future of Jobs 2025 standards — or begin the onboarding process to the EASEC recommended curriculum.

Use EASEC tools and support to document alignment between your programme and recognised European standards — or implement the EASEC curriculum with dedicated onboarding guidance. No programme redesign required for existing initiatives.

Receive the EASEC programme accreditation seal, valid for the chosen period. Your school's verified public profile is published on easec.eu — visible to families, universities and employers worldwide.

No. If your school already has a skills development programme — a subject, a mentoring programme or an extracurricular initiative — EASEC assesses what already exists and documents its alignment with ESCO, EQF and WEF. EASEC support facilitates the necessary documentation without requiring any redesign of the current programme.

EASEC provides the school with a ready-to-implement curriculum, designed for secondary and pre-university students, aligned with ESCO, EQF and WEF Future of Jobs 2025. The school adopts the curriculum and accreditation is granted from the first day of implementation. No prior programme is required to begin the process.

The full process from initial application to seal issuance has an estimated duration of 4 to 8 weeks, depending on the documentation available for the programme. EASEC provides technical support throughout the process to facilitate documentation without generating additional operational burden.

Throughout the accreditation period, the school has access to EASEC guidance to support continuous programme improvement — review of framework updates, implementation consultations and guidance for accreditation renewal. The support is designed not to create additional work for the academic team.

Yes. Accreditation is renewable at the end of the chosen period — 1, 2 or 3 years. The renewal process is more streamlined than the initial accreditation, given that the school already has the established alignment documentation and the track record from the previous period.

Yes. As soon as accreditation is granted, the school's institutional profile is published on easec.eu with the accredited programme, the validity period and the competences developed — immediately visible to families, universities and employers worldwide.

Yes. EASEC accreditation is available to schools in any region of the world. Institutions in eligible regions may also access international cooperation support to reduce or waive first-year costs. Please consult us before submitting your application to confirm your institution's eligibility.
