On the Way to 2020: Data for Vocational Education and Training Policies. Indicator Overviews. Cedefop Research Paper. No 33
Cedefop - European Centre for the Development of Vocational Training
This report provides a statistical overview of vocational education and training (VET) and lifelong learning in European countries. Data are presented in the form of statistical snapshots, one for each of the 31 selected indicators. To the extent allowed by data availability, data are presented for the 27 European Union (EU) Member States and for Croatia, the former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, Iceland, Norway, Switzerland, and Turkey. The report complements "On the Way to 2020: Data for Vocational Education and Training Policies. Country Statistical Overviews. Cedefop Research Paper. No 31" (Cedefop 2013), which has made use of the same data but has organised them in a different way. While the previous report offered a set of country snapshots (one per country), this report offers a set of indicator snapshots (one per indicator). Data are based on international statistics, enabling comparisons of countries and statistical averages for the European Union. The overviews comprise 31 selected indicators that separately and together provide meaningful information about the position of each country in relation to the priorities of European VET and lifelong learning policy, and in comparison to EU averages. Indicators are supplemented by a short commentary highlighting particularly interesting observations for each indicator. This publication, in consequence, aims to be a valuable tool which can be used in various ways and adds user-friendly evidence for many purposes. It should help policy-makers and researchers and ease access to the information available. [For the 2013 Country Statistical Overviews, see ED607077.]
