Update on graduate tracking activities in vocational education and training (VET)
date: 30/08/2022
The study, led by ICF, has two parts: the first part looks at the availability and comparability of data stored in national administrative data sources/registers, whilst the second part is considering the feasibility of sampling for an (international) graduate tracking survey in VET. It will provide insights on:
- analysing the quality and comparability of the data sources;
- identifying a core set of derived variables from national linked administrative data suitable for comparative purposes;
- testing the potential structure of a repository of the variables that match standards for quality and comparability;
- mapping available data sources and systems for completing a graduate survey in each Member States; and
- assessing these sources/systems against the requirements for ensuring a consistent survey approach
