The automotive sector is one of the largest industrial sectors in Poland – it accounted for 11.5% of the value of industrial production in the economy in 2017. In recent years, investment outlays have increased in this industry – in 2017 they amounted to PLN 6.7 billion (13.76% of outlays in the industrial sector).This is particularly important in terms of the competences and qualifications sought, and means that suppliers and companies must meet a number of quality criteria required by large international corporations. The inclusion of the automotive sector in quality assurance systems raises specific expectations for personnel, their skills and scope of responsibilities, as the demand and supply of labour in Poland is strongly determined by the situation in the global market.

Work on modern qualifications systems has been conducted throughout the world for many years. From a technical point of view, qualifications registers are tools to support the qualifications systems of individual countries. On one hand, registers enable broad access to qualifications functioning in national education systems, on the other – they support the development of lifelong learning.
