The following Directive provides for the recognition of A.M.I. Montessori professional qualifications for professions regulated both in the Member State where the qualification was obtained and in the Member State where the candidate would like to practise his profession.

On the basis of Article 166(4) TFEU and 165 TFEU, we call for the recommendation of the European Commission for the Montessori formation in the European Union.

Since Montessori pedagogy is widely used in Europe in its public and private sectors, the European Commission could encourage the exchange of information between those Member States which recognise this qualification and those which do not recognise it, or seek to increase the mobility of educated Montessori teachers by promoting mutual exchange programmes, or encourage cooperation between educational institutions providing training for Montessori teachers and public teachers.

This recognition promotes the improvement of quality and equity in education among Member States.

Pursuant to Article 166(4) TFEU, the Commission may recommend measures that contribute to the realisation of certain objectives relevant to the internal market listed in Article 166(2) TFEU. These include: "improving initial vocational training and continuing training in order to facilitate vocational integration and reintegration into the labour market"; "facilitating access to vocational training and encouraging the mobility of trainers and trainees, in particular young people"; "stimulating cooperation on training between vocational education or training establishments and enterprises"; and "developing the exchange of information and experience on issues common to the training systems of the Member States."

On the basis of Article 166(4) TFEU - as indicated above - Montessori training accredited by the Association Montessori Internationale could be a potential non-binding measure that the Commission could recommend.

In the light of Article 165 TFEU, permission is sought for the Commission to propose guidelines or recommendations that would allow Montessori-trained teachers to be more easily recognised across the EU.
