Recognition of Foreign Qualifications

Recognition of Foreign Qualifications is the process by which a country's authorities evaluate and validate educational credentials earned abroad. This ensures that qualifications are equivalent to local standards, allowing individuals to work, study, or practice professionally within that country. The process involves checking the authenticity, content, and level of the foreign qualification against local criteria. It helps facilitate international mobility and workers' rights while maintaining professional standards and protecting public interest. Different countries have specific procedures and agencies responsible for this recognition, which can vary depending on the profession or academic field.
