Why keep learning throughout your life?
Do you enjoy your job? Does it give you satisfaction? Do you feel confident and secure in your role? Are you aware of the changes taking place in the labour market? Do you want to take a new direction in your career? Do you want to show others that you are continuing to develop your skills and gain new ones? If you ask yourself these questions, we can help. Have you ever wondered how to maintain your value in the labour market in today’s rapidly changing world? The answer is lifelong learning! It is more than just a slogan – it is a real opportunity for personal and professional growth at every stage of your journey.
Think of it this way: whether you are just starting your career, looking to move into a different industry or simply want to gain new skills, lifelong learning is for you. Everything that helps you develop counts – at school, on courses, at work and even at home while pursuing your interests.
We have something that can help you – the Integrated Qualifications System (IQS). It is an organised source of information about different qualifications and skills that you can gain after school, higher education, courses or training. The IQS supports the idea of lifelong learning – an approach developed across the European Union, according to which knowledge and skills are gained not only at school, but also at work, at home and through social activities – throughout life and in many different areas.
Where can you find this information? In the Integrated Qualifications Register (IQR). The Register collects and provides access to information about all qualifications included in the IQS. There you can check:
- What qualifications are available?
- What requirements do you need to meet to obtain them?
- Which institutions are authorised to award them?
- What level of the Polish Qualifications Framework (PQF) is assigned to a given qualification. This makes your qualifications – such as school certificates, diplomas and certificates – easier to understand and more trusted abroad.
The IQR is like a map of your development path. You can browse available qualifications without logging in. And if you are not sure where to start, the ZeteRKa chatbot will be happy to help! It will analyse your preferences and suggest qualifications that may suit you best.
Why is it worth confirming your skills and gaining new qualifications?
- Your qualifications will be easier to understand and more trusted, including abroad.
- You will gain a greater sense of job security.
