The EU Skills Profile Tool for Third Country Nationals, is an online questionnaire in the format of a CV to assist national authorities and relevant services to identify and document skills of Third Country Nationals. It aims to facilitate the integration of TCNs in the labour market by supporting the identification and documentation of their skills and work experience. The Tool is available in all EU official languages (apart from Gaelic) and in Arabic, Farsi, Pashto, Somali, Sorani, Tigrinya and Turkish – the main languages of refugees receiving asylum in Europe. The questions are displayed in two languages at the same time on one screen, reducing language barriers between caseworkers and the TCN.

A first version of the Skills Profile Tool has been developed in 2017 and has been made publicly available as an application hosted on Europa portal (https://ec.europa.eu/migrantskills). The release of the Open Source code refers to evolutions of the tool, features to enhance it, arriving as subsequent versions of the one launched in production. It will allow organisations to make fundamental changes or build entirely new tools using the EU level instrument.
