Lisbon Recognition Convention

The Lisbon Recognition Convention, established in 1997, is an international agreement that ensures higher education qualifications are recognized across different countries. It aims to facilitate the mobility of students and professionals by providing a transparent and fair process for recognizing degrees, diplomas, and credits obtained abroad. This means if you study in one country and seek employment or further education in another, your qualifications are more likely to be accepted and understood. The convention promotes academic and professional mobility, cooperation, and recognition of higher education standards internationally.
