YouthInfoComp - The Youth Information Worker Competence Framework is the first of its kind in Europe and a strong reference for all countries willing to give recognition to the profession. This framework sets out to ensure that youth information professionals possess the necessary competences to support young people and provide quality services in this endeavour and beyond. 

The framework offers a shared reference tool for describing the competences (knowledge, skills and attitudes) required by YI workers, or any youth work professionals delivering youth information. 

Youth information workers can use YouthInfoComp for example to understand and explain their role to young people and stakeholders and to identify areas for skills and operational improvement and set professional development objectives.

Two European youth information and mobility networks, ERYICA and Eurodesk, joined together to
reinforce youth information work by devising this competence framework.
