In celebration of the 20th anniversary of the Europass portal, the National Europass Centre in Spain has launched the new edition of the 2024 School Competition: ‘Boost your Employability with the Europass Digital Tools’.

The competition is aimed at students from 14 to 18 years of age, from any type of non-university education.

The deadline for participation is 27 January 2025.
