The European Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) Week takes place from 9–13 November 2026, bringing together events and activities across Europe to recognise and celebrate learning gained throughout life.
An initiative of the European RPL Network which includes EUA as a founding member, the week will showcase how Recognition of Prior Learning can support access to education, progression, career development and lifelong learning.
Through a programme of conferences, workshops, presentations, webinars and awareness activities, participating organisations will share practical experience, explore emerging approaches and strengthen connections across the RPL community. Themes include inclusive and flexible higher education, recognising workplace and lived experience, quality assurance, international collaboration, and the use of digital tools and artificial intelligence.
The programme includes events open to general registration alongside activities for invited participants or specific professional groups. Practitioners, educators, researchers, policymakers, employers and learners are encouraged to explore the listings and identify opportunities relevant to their interests.
Please check the time zone, language and participation arrangements for each event.
