Recognition of qualifications
An assesment of the qualifications of a foreign job applicant in relation to those of the Faroese educational system may be required.
Recognition of foreign diplomas, degrees and other qualifications in the Faroe Islands will in most cases be similar to recognition of qualifications in Denmark.
The Danish Agency for Higher Education and Science offers assessment of foreign qualifications.
For some positions a Faroese or Danish authorisation is needed. For example foreign trained doctors and other health personnel must be authorised by the Danish Patient Safety Authority.

Recognition of academic qualifications may also be required if you are applying for admission to higher education, including Ph.D. programmes. Information on recognition of grades and qualifications for study programmes can be provided from the Student Affairs Centre of the University of the Faroe Islands.
