Authorized vocational education institutions and legal entities that gained the right to implement vocational training and retraining programs (through NCEQE) can recognize non-formal education if they meet the required standards. The institution is eligible to obtain the right for recognition of non-formal education only within the scope of the programs it implements or has obtained the right to implement. Based on the official order confirming the recognition of non-formal education, the institution issues the following documents to the applicant:

• Certificate and Certificate Supplement – if the applicant successfully demonstrates the learning outcomes defined by the module(s).

• Statement of Confirmed Learning Outcomes – if the applicant is unable to fully demonstrate all required learning outcomes of the module(s).

• If the applicant fully meets the learning outcomes necessary to obtain a qualification within a vocational education program, the institution issues a Diploma as proof of qualification.

However, if the applicant only partially meets the required learning outcomes, the institution does not issue a qualification certificate.

Vocational diplomas and certificates, along with their annexes are in line with the EUROPASS requirements.
