You can self-assess your language skills in your Europass profile. To self-assess your skills means that you reflect on your skills, and describe your skills levels. You can complete a simple self-assessment table in your Europass profile to describe your language skills. You can read each of the descriptions in the self-assessment tool and pick the level that you think best describes your listening, reading, spoken interaction, spoken production and writing skills in any language. You also store your language certificates in the Europass library. The self-assessment tool uses the Common European Framework for Languages (CEFR).

You can share the self-assessment table from your Europass profile to share with others such as employers, education or training institutions.  

The Europass Language Passport was established as one of the Europass document templates in 2004 as a self-assessment tool for language skills and qualifications.
The current Europass integrated the language passport within the Europass profile as a section called language skills. You are still able to self-assess your language competences based on the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR) and can share your results with employers or education institutions as necessary. 
 

The Diploma Supplement can help you to describe your higher education qualifications in a clear and consistent way.
