The Goals of the EUCIP Certification

The objective of the EUCIP programme is to offer a recognised certification of IT competence at a standard prescribed by CEPIS (The Council of European Professional Informatics Societies) for IT  professionals. The qualification is aimed at practitioners working in industry, government and public organisations alike. By establishing a professional IT standard, EUCIP creates confidence in a new pan-european skills standard for IT professionals, helping to close the IT  skills gap, and increase the labour market value of certified practitioners.

The overall goals of EUCIP are:

• To define an industry-driven standard for Informatics professionals.
• To meet the demands of the increasing market for IT professionals across Europe.
• To contribute to closing the IT skills gap in Europe.
• To offer a vehicle for life-long learning and competency enhancement for the IT profession.
