Abstract
The main purpose of this paper is to reflect on and compare the different 'realities' of Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) regarding informal and non-formal learning contexts in three countries: Brazil, Portugal, and Germany. In Brazil, the Certific Network is a public policy that addresses the recognition and certification of prior learning. In Portugal, the Qualifica Programme is dedicated to the recognition of learnings and skills acquired throughout life. In Germany, the ProfilPass Project focuses on the values or skills acquired informally and non-formally. Regarding the international-comparative analysis methodology, the paper studies and compares these initiatives considering three comparative axes: 1) central aims, 2) target groups, 3) formats and structures of action. Such comparative research shows the importance of understanding RPL concepts and practical realities in different social, political and economic contexts.
