BEFORE ARRIVAL

    Please bear in mind that providing a recognition statement  is a necessary step when applying for a certain job offers. You will find more on the process on the website of the National Agency for Academic Exchange NAWA. Here you can also look up general information about types of diplomas obtained abroad and verify how a certain type of diploma is recognized in Poland. In order to do so, use KWALIFIKATOR database.
