European Credit Transfer and Accumulation System (ECTS)
Credit system designed to make it easier for students to move between different countries. Since they are based on the learning achievements and workload of a course, a student can transfer their ECTS credits from one university to another so they are added up to contribute to an individual's degree programme or training.

The European Credit system for Vocational Education and Training (ECVET)
ECVET is a device in which qualifications are expressed in units of learning outcomes to which credit points are attached, and which is combined with a procedure for validating learning outcomes. The aim is to make it easier for people to get validation and recognition of work-related skills and knowledge acquired in different systems and countries, so that they can count towards vocational qualifications. To make more attractive to move between different countries and learning environments, increase the compatibility between the different vocational education and training (VET) systems in place across Europe, and the qualifications they offer and increase the employability of VET graduates and the confidence of employers that each VET qualification requires specific skills and knowledge.
