lpv:translated text	"Mobility in training and employment within the European Union is important in raising employment levels among European citizens. It can improve inter–connectedness, bring about ever closer cooperation and promote knowledge of other nations and languages. As far as education is concerned, cooperation is improving, although funding is still too low. If we want to attain better results, however, we must also make arrangements for higher quality education. If all that companies see in the organisation of programmes for improved mobility is a higher workload without any added value they will not strive to make such programmes a success. In their eyes these programmes will only appear to create more work, increase their costs in arranging mentoring, and leak information to their competitors. If the mobility of workers is to be increased, suitable incentives need to be offered to employees working for companies and organisations. Of course, appropriate measures will be needed to encourage them. We also need to raise employees’ awareness, so that they become familiar with the opportunities and advantages of mobility. To this end, lists of organisations wishing to take part in the process need to be drawn up, but, at the same time, institutions responsible for the preparation and promotion of such lists should be established. Moreover, employees are still facing difficulties in having their qualifications and skills recognised in other countries. In many countries, students and employees are already successfully using Europass, the use of which also needs to be expanded and improved. Knowledge is an asset and the best investment we can make in order to meet the challenges of the future."@en1
