The main reference framework for EU Digital Skills attestment is the European Information Technologies Certification (EITC), that formally certifies your IT competencies in a chosen narrow specialization of a given software or certain skillset. Usually when you are pursuing specialization in given field of IT such a narrow certification is not sufficient. Therefore EITC Programme has been extended into the European Information Technologies Certification Academy that joins together several topically related EITC Certifications into a unified EITCA Certification Programme that attests your far-reaching specialization in a given field of IT applications, such as Computer Graphics, Information Security or Business IT.
As EITCA Academy is based upon the European Information Technologies Certification framework it also implements European Commission's Digital Agenda for Europe pronouncing establishment of the professional EU IT certification standard and it's dissemination in Europe and abroad as critical for further development of the Inclusive Digital Society and Knowledge Based Economy.
