Work of the chapter
Activities
What the chapter does, and the national work on qualifications that it sits alongside.
The chapter
Seminars and lectures
Promoting ACM as a professional organisation and the chapter's work by organising lectures and seminars on computing topics — and by welcoming new members from industry and from universities.
A means of communication
Article II of the bylaws names communication between people interested in computing as one of the chapter's purposes. Meetings, talks and correspondence are how that purpose is carried out.
Students and early careers
Greater interest in computing among students and the public is written into the chapter's purpose. Student projects, research presentations and programming culture in Romanian universities are where that work starts.
Digital courses
Professional development for members through NewTech Academy's subscription library — eight self-paced IT courses for €8 a month.

The qualification landscape in Romania.
Computing qualifications sit inside a national system run by the National Qualifications Authority (ANC), a public institution under the Ministry of Education and Research.
National Qualifications Framework and RNC
ANC develops, implements, updates and manages the National Qualifications Framework and the National Register of Qualifications (RNC), aligned with the European Qualifications Framework.
Occupational standards
ANC coordinates and controls, at national level, the drafting, validation, approval and management of occupational and qualification standards.
Recognition of certificates
ANC recognises certificates of competence obtained in formal, non-formal or informal systems, issued by authorised or accredited training providers, assessment centres or equivalent bodies outside Romania.
Competence assessment centres
ANC authorises and accredits the centres that assess professional competences acquired outside the formal education system.
European tools
ANC is the National Coordination Point for the EQF, the national contact point for ESCO, the National Europass Centre, the national support service for EPALE and the National Euroguidance Point.
The single market
ANC is registered as a competent authority on the IMI platform, handling correspondence with EU member states on professional qualifications and services.
