CEPIS releases statement on the European Digital Skills Certificate

CEPIS has released a statement calling for clarification of the proposed action of creating a European Digital Skills Certificate (EDSC) in the Digital Education Action Plan (DEAP). While we welcome the announcement of DEAP, we believe that the European Commission should map different digital competence certification schemes and quality assurance requirements to the DigComp framework across Europe. After successful mapping, the Commission should enable them to use the label of European Digital Skills Certificate.
