A number of education programmes offer the possibility of an individual competence assessment. You can have your prior learning experiences validated in relation to adult education and continuing training.
Depending on your competences, you may be able to get access to an education programme, exemption from parts of the programme itself or even a competence certificate or diploma to recognise either a completed programme or completed modules of the programme.
Individual competence assessment is offered in the context of:
-
Diploma programmes (continuing professional education at bachelor level)
-
Academy profession programmes within adult education
-
Vocational Education and Training for Adults programmes (EUV)
-
General adult education (AVU) and general upper secondary education subjects.
You can seek assistance and guidance on competence assessment by contacting the nearest job centre.
If you have any formal qualifications completed outside Denmark you can ask the Danish Agency for Higher Education and Science to have them assessed, which may also be helpful for a competence assessment:
