​As of 01 July 2021, the CEPA course - Prevention of and Fight against Transnational Crime is assigned to the Austrian Qualification Register at NQF level V (https://www.qualifikationsregister.at/public/qualification/94/). A significant milestone for the "Future of CEPA" has been achieved thanks to this certification. Finally, CEPA is now one of the first police training institutions in Europe to have a qualification mapped to a National Qualifications Framework (NQF). National Qualifications Frameworks (NQFs) are instruments for classifying qualifications of individual education systems. On the one hand, this transparency instrument facilitates orientation in the respective education system and, on the other hand, contributes to the comparability and comprehensibility of national qualifications in Europe. Via the European Qualifications Framework (EQF) as a translation tool, all nationally assigned qualifications are referenced and thus made comparable.
