Assessment of foreign higher education qualifications for professional purposes
An assessment is a credential evaluation carried out by ENIC NARIC AUSTRIA that describes foreign higher education qualifications and certifies their professional uses. It is intended to facilitate your access to the Austrian labor market with a foreign higher education qualification. The assessment serves as a comparative evaluation, but is not a formal recognition (Professional recognition under EU law and nostrification).
You can find useful information about the assessment of foreign higher education qualifications for professional purposes on the website of OeAD – Agency for Education and Internationalisation: ENIC NARIC AUSTRIA | Credential Evaluation
Applications for the assessment of higher education qualifications can only be submitted via the AAIS online portal: Assessment of higher education qualifications · AAIS · ENIC NARIC AUSTRIA
