Competence balancing is a chance for employees threatened with redundancies and unemployed persons who do not have the certificates of specialist schools or courses. The proposed model helps increase the mobility of employees, gives easier access to the labour market to the unemployed and provides tools for the assessment of the actual professional capabilities of employees. Thanks to the result employees obtain formal confirmations of their knowledge and professional skills (certificates or diplomas), gained in informal education. Obtaining the appropriate certificates is not conditional upon completing the whole training cycle.

The vocational education focuses primarily on gaining specific skills sought in the labour market, defined on the basis of the monitored needs of employers and local labour markets. Thanks to the result, the unemployed will be able to become familiar with the characteristics of a given profession, establish contacts in the industry and consequently find employment.
