EU key expert CV template for EU-funded service contracts
Consultancies bidding for EU-funded service contracts in external action and technical assistance propose key experts whose CVs are scored against the evaluation criteria of the terms of reference. This Word template follows the order of the PRAG key-expert CV: proposed position, family name and first names, date of birth and nationality as written in the CV, education with dates, language skills for reading, speaking and writing on the CEFR scale, membership of professional bodies, other skills, present position, years within the firm, key qualifications, specific experience in the region, and the professional experience table with dates, working days, location, company and reference person, position and description. Before all that comes a table that takes each evaluation criterion of the terms of reference and shows the evidence for it in the CV. Formatix fills it from the expert's CV and the criteria in your notes.
Since PRAG 2025 many dossiers ask for the key expert's profile in Excel and score it only against the criteria of the terms of reference, while older dossiers and many programmes still ask for the CV. Either way the bid team needs the same thing: each criterion answered with dated evidence. The criteria table does that on page one. Working days appear only as the CV states them, and the dossier's own CV or profile model always prevails.
10 free credits, no card needed. One credit fills one document.
For recruitment and search firms. Formatix formats your candidates' CVs into your firm's template; it is not a tool for writing your own CV.
An editable file with neutral branding and a fictional example candidate, to fill in by hand. Formatix fills it automatically from a CV.

What's in the template
The CV of a key expert proposed for an EU-funded service contract (EU external action and technical assistance under the PRAG), in the order of the PRAG key-expert CV: proposed position, names, date of birth and nationality as the CV gives them, education, language skills on the CEFR scale, professional bodies, other skills, present position, key qualifications, specific experience in the region and the professional experience table with working days. A first table maps each evaluation criterion of the terms of reference to the evidence in the CV. Not the official PRAG form; the tender dossier's own model prevails.

Questions about this template
- Is this the official PRAG CV form?
- No. It is a Formatix template that follows the order of the PRAG key-expert CV and supports the bid. The tender dossier's own CV or key expert's profile model prevails, and the footer says so.
- What goes in the evaluation criteria table?
- Each criterion of the terms of reference from your notes, with the evidence in the CV and where it is. A criterion the CV does not show stays without evidence, so you see the gap before the evaluator does.
- Does it include the statement of exclusivity and availability?
- No. That statement belongs to the tender submission, not the CV. Civil status is also left out unless you add it by hand for a dossier that still asks for it.
- Is there a French version?
- Yes, a native French template for bids in French, at /fr/modeles/cv-expert-principal-ue.
- Can I download this template?
- Yes. A free, editable Word version with neutral branding and a fictional example key expert is on this page, to fill in by hand. To have it rebuilt in your brand and filled automatically, use it in Formatix; you keep an editable Word file.
