You are cordially invited to a conference on May 15 promoting the solutions of the Integrated Qualifications System (IQS), with particular emphasis on the related activities of the Ministry of Development and Technology for business and the construction industry. The conference is one of many events celebrating Poland's twentieth anniversary of accession to the European Union. The conference is organised by the Ministry of Development and Technology and the Educational Research Institute.
During the conference, discussion panels will address, among others:

We will seek answers to the following questions:
