What is Europass?
Europass is an EU initiative to increase transparency of qualification and mobility of citizens in Europe. It aims to be a Life Long Learning Portfolio of documents containing the descriptions of all learning achievements, official qualifications, work results, skills and competencies, acquired over time, along with the related documentation. The five Europass documents are the Europass CV, Europass Language Passport, Europass Mobility, Europass Certificate Supplement and Europass Diploma Supplement, sharing a common brand name and logo and aim to make a person's skills and qualifications clearly understood throughout Europe.
Europass consists of five documents:
- two documents (Europass curriculum vitae (CV) and Europass Language Passport) you can fill in yourself; and
- three other documents (Europass Certificate Supplement, Europass Diploma Supplement and Europass Mobility) filled in and issued by competent organisations.
Europass is supported by a network of National Europass Centres.
Europass has been established by the Decision No 2241/2004/EC of the European Parliament and the Council of 15 December 2004 on a single transparency framework for qualifications and competences.
More information about Europass can be found on official webpage.
How Europass plugin works?
The plugin creates XML file, which contains your data. Then it sends that XML file via SSL to Europass Web Service. The Europass Web Service than creates your Europass CV or Europass Language Passport in one of the following formats:
- Adobe PDF + Europass XML (XML file is attached inside PDF file)
- Microsoft Word document
- OpenDocument (e.g. OpenOffice.org Writer document)
- HTML file
- Europass XML file
Europass plugin and Mahara
The plugin is tested and works with Mahara 1.2.0 and newer, but Richard Mansfield told me to warn you, to use it with Mahara 1.3.0 when it will be released. This is because changes to Mahara Core code, which will be available with version 1.3.0. The changes include added fields for Employer Address and Institution Address.
In Mahara 1.2 series the notice is displayed at the top of the page, that Mahara should be upgraded to version 1.3.0 or newer. This notice doesn't affect the usability of the plugin (it just means that there will not be Employer Address field in Employment History form and Institution Address in Education History form) and can be safely ignored.
Europass tab in Profile
The Europass tab contains all the data, that will be included in Europass CV or Europass Language Passport. The data, that user enters elsewhere in Mahara, such as Personal information, Education History, Employment History etc, will be just displayed.
Other data, such as Skills and competences, Driving licence(s), Additional information, Mother tongue(s) and Foreign language(s), can be entered via web forms, provided on Europass tab.
Export Europass tab in My Portfolio
Europass CV or Europass Language Passport can be sent to other people via email. In that case, on should export his/her Europass CV or Europass Language Passport. This can be achieved, using Export Europass tab in My Portfolio.
Blocktypes
The plugin contains four different blocktypes, that allow showing your Europass data inside Mahara Pages (Views in Mahara < 1.4).
- europasscv: is a blocktype to show your entire Europass CV as a view in Mahara.
NB. Please, use one column view for this. - europasslp: is a blocktype to show your entire Europass Language Portfolio as a page in Mahara.
NB. Please, use one column view for this. - europassfield: is a blocktype to show any of the Europass form fields (driving licence(s), skills and competences, additional info, annexes, mother tongue(s) or foreign language(s)).
- mylanguages: this is a blokctype to show your language knowledge. You can choose to show your mother tongue(s) or the foreign language(s), that you master.
Using Europass plugin
Requirements
You'll have to install and enable xml and xsl support on your webserver, for this plugin to work.
'As of PHP 5.0, libxml and libxslt libraries, and DOM extension are built in the PHP installation. The XSLT extension is also included by default, but may be disabled in your particular server configuration.'
If your xsl support is disabled, you can enable it by following these steps at the webpage http://flex.sys-con.com/node/200299?page=0,3. There are instructions to enable the XSLT extension on Windows, Linux or Mac OS X.
A copy of that article is also available here, in this wiki.

Translating Europass plugin
The official Europass webform labels and help files were used, so majority of language strings are already translated into following languages: Bulgarian, Croatian, Czech, Danish, Dutch, Estonian, Finnish, French, German, Greek, Hungarian, Icelandic, Italian, Latvian, Lithuanian, Maltese, Norwegian, Polish, Portuguese, Romanian, Slovak, Spanish, Swedish and Turkish.
All help files are already available in all those languages.
Most lines with untranslated strings or translated, but not checked string are marked with the characters /**/ at the beginning of that line. When translator translates and/or checks the string, he/she should remove /**/ from the beginning of the translated line.
Translators should double check language names (lines from 312 to 399). These languages were not 'officially' translated by Europass. Actualy they were 'left out' by Europass - beacuse Europass filtered ISO 639 list of languages. Most of there translations were found on wikipedia... so again: translators should double check these translations.
None of the four blocktypes is translated. So please copy entire en.utf folder within blocktype's lang folder and rename it to your language (e.g. de.utf8 for German, es.utf8 for Spanish ...) and translate all lines. There are about 5 lines for each blocktype.

Extensible Markup Language
| File extension | .xml |
| File category | documents |
| Description | XML is a file format that holds a markup language. Both humans and machines can access this file format. It is designed to store data. Here one can use languages independently and can set his tag. It is portable enough and has enough vendor independence, which has introduced this format as a user-friendly format and made this format very popular on the online platform. XML is essential, like HTML. |
| Technical details | Every XML file owns a root structure by which users can set their tags. Every single XML file begins with XML declaration. XML declaration has its version name and encoding of that specific file. After that, a base element called the root element is defined. The root element may have child elements. All tags have their ending tag. XML files may carry comments, entity references, and attributes. Applications can read the values and display the users want. |

Portable Document Format

| File category | documents |
| Description | PDF – is a cross-platform extension necessary for the visualization of printed materials in electronic form. It is developed by Adobe Systems using separate PostScript resources. PDF documents can exist separately from the OS or hardware tools with which they were developed. Files of this format do not have restrictions on the length, several types, and image options, as they allow you to embed various multimedia tools, scan-line, and vector images. They are supported by Adobe Reader and many browsers, providing the plugin is installed. |
| Technical details | PDF supports color models CMYK, RGB, shades of gray, and also it has its technical formats for performing the exchange of finished documents. Any file contains a description of a 2D or 3D document with all the necessary components (scan-line, vector graphics, text, and more). The extension does not encode data associated with the software or OS used to develop and view it. |
