Until now, Labour Market Institutions (IRP), including Public Employment Services, have based their services on various occupational resources. However, most of those resources cannot keep up with the dynamically changing content of work and legal regulations. In addition, they are not available in one place and they lack uniformity. Unquestionably, a universally recognized model for the description of a profession would create an effective tool to support employees and customers of IRP. The model as well as methodology used for its development would also effectively complement the new systemic solutions, such as the Act on the Integrated Qualifications System or the European Skills/Competences, Qualifications and Occupations (ESCO). Consequently, a new way of describing and presenting information about occupations has been developed in the PO WER project “Developing, supplementing and updating information about occupations and its dissemination using modern communication tools – INFODORADCA +”, which filled the existing gap and replaced the out-dated set of materials gathered in the old IT system “Doradca 2000”. The project has also unified the structure and supplemented new content to the standards of qualifications and professional competences developed in the years 2004–2013 at the initiative of MRPiPS. The article not only presents the genesis of the project implementation and its main activities, but also it emphasises the model and the methodology of creating occupational information.

The paper is an attempt to answer the question concerning using the information about professions for the educational offer in an academic institution. The first part constitutes the consideration over contemporary changes in higher education. There are several social determinants, among them: the development of information and communication technologies, the development of mass media, changes of the structure of qualification and professional mobility. Both civilisation changes and the development of science and technique influence the appearance of new professions and new work places. The information about professions being developed as a career counselling tool can be helpful in choosing or confirming the choice of the field of study or speciality. The information may also facilitate the development of a gradu-ate profile, selection of the content of education (syllabuses, modules) as well as identification and assessment of learning outcomes

The Sector Competence Board in Construction will soon receive the instrument in the form of the Sectoral Qualifications Framework in Construction (SRK-Bud) – legislative works are underway to include SRK-Bud into ZSK – which will facilitate the development of new qualifications in line with the sector's needs. As a part of the INFODORADCA+ project, the information about 63 professions from the construction sector will be developed. Content-rich descriptions of these professions can be used to prepare applications for the inclusion of new market qualifications to ZSK. It has startedin 2017,when the first construction qualification – ”Construction joinery assembling” – was included into ZSK as a market qualification. The first certificates confirming the achievement of learning outcomes in this qualification were issued in the second half of 2018. Similarity and complementarity of occupational information included in the model for the description of a profession within the INFODORADCA+ project as well as in the application form for the inclusion of a new market qualification to ZSK fosters the acceleration of works on the development of new market qualifications for the construction sector.
