ELGPN Tools No. 4: Designing and Implementing Policies Related to Career Management Skills (CMS)

CAREER MANAGEMENT SKILLS (CMS) enable citizens to manage their individual life paths in education, training and work across the lifespan. This ELGPN Tool is addressed to policy-makers who wish to develop a comprehensive national guidance policy with the focus on the acquisition of CMS. This need may arise in the light of the various lifelong guidance policies which exist in Europe, of closing existing gaps in the national provision, and in meeting future approaches to lifelong guidance. This tool is intended to support policy-makers in considering key questions in CMS-related policies by sharing insights, good practices and conclusions across the ELGPN member-countries. 

The ELGPN represents a major development in support of national lifelong guidance policy development in Europe. It currently has 30 member countries (AT, BE, BG, CY, CZ, DE, DK, EE, EL, ES, FI, FR, HR, HU, IE, IS, IT, LV, LT, LU, MT, NL, NO, PL, PT, RO, RS, SE, SI, and SK), with CH as an observer. The participating countries designate their representatives in the Network, and are encouraged to include both governmental and non-governmental representatives. As a Member-State-driven network, the ELGPN represents an innovative form of the Open Method of Co-ordination within the European Union (EU).
