The European Commission implements Youthpass via the support of the SALTO Training and Cooperation Resource Centre, who coordinates the communication between the structures and actors of the Youth in Action Programme involved and organizes the development of the validation instrument. The activity of the Commission and SALTO Training and Cooperation RC is supported by a Youthpass Advisory Group, composed of representatives of Commission, National Agencies, SALTOs and experts.
Despite the fact that Youthpass certificates are generated by promoters through a dedicated website, the National Agencies of the Youth in Action Programme also play an essential role in raising awareness and know-how about Youthpass among their stakeholders. A network of contact persons within the Agencies has been established for the purpose of improving the implementation of Youthpass in each national context by exchanging information and practices.
Youthpass Certificate can be filled in on the Youthpass portal by the organization organizing the mobility activities and hosting the young persons. The procedure to issue a Certificate is the following:
- create an account of the issuing organization,
- introduce project data,
- introduce beneficiary data:
- activities undertaken during the project,
- competences acquired or developed (the framework of the 8 key competences: communication in mother tongue, communication in foreign language, mathematical literacy and basis competences in science and technology, digital competence, learning-to-learn, interpersonal and civic competences, entrepreneurship, cultural expression).
The specific information to be filled in depends on the type of project (the action it belongs to). The Youthpass Certificate is generated in a .pdf format. It can be modified and generated again at any time. All data introduced can be modified or deleted at any time.
In Romania, the programme is managed by the Europass National Center in cooperation with Youth in Action Department, both par of the National Agency for Community Programmes in the Field of Education and Training.
