A competency roadmap towards International & European careers
Project Presentation
Every year, hundreds of students in European and international law programmes face the same question: how do you build a career in a world as vast and demanding as the international and European professional sphere? Whether the goal is to join a European institution, work as an international business lawyer, advise a multinational, represent interests before EU bodies, or pursue a path in diplomacy or international negotiation — the pathways are many, and the preparation required is real.
Core Competences for International and European Careers was built to answer that question. Born in 2022 from a concrete need expressed by students at the European School of Law, it is a collection shaped by direct encounters with practitioners from the public and private sectors, and supervised by its pedagogical coordinators, Pierre-Jean Thil and Oana Andreea Macovei.
Rather than cataloguing professions, the collection maps competencies: the academic, behavioural, linguistic, and operational skills that international and European careers actually require — and that professional recruiters look for.
Framework
The collection is developed in partnership with academic and professional institutions committed to training for European and international careers.
Academic framework- European School of Law Toulouse
The European School of Law Toulouse has for several years guided its students towards careers in European and international law. Its commitment to this project reflects a shared ambition to bridge academic training and the professional demands of the European and international world.
