Expert network on recognition of outcomes of learning periods abroad in general secondary education - Member States analysis (2021)

The 2018 Council Recommendation on promoting automatic mutual recognition for the purpose of further learning is one of the building blocks of the European Education Area by 2025.

This analysis sets out current recognition processes in the 27 EU Member States regarding general upper secondary education. It identifies barriers and enablers to automatic mutual recognition and suggests potential ways forward at both European and national levels. It is the first of its kind to gather this level of detail on long-term individual pupil mobility across Europe.
