Editeur(s) : European Centre for the Development of Vocational Training (CEDEFOP)
Date : 07/2021
Concise, clear and comprehensive snapshots of vocational education and training systems in EU, Iceland and Norway: this is what the Cedefop Spotlight on VET series offers. Building on individual country Spotlights, this publication provides an overview of VET systems with their distinctive qualities, such as main accession and progression routes for learners; types and levels of qualifications they lead to; types of programmes, delivery modes, work-based learning ratio and duration. In addition to the system charts, it also briefly reflects on current challenges and recent VET policy initiatives. Shaped by socioeconomic contexts and traditions, VET systems across Europe are diverse while often sharing the same goals and facing similar challenges. The Covid-19 pandemic forced all countries to adjust their education and training processes to a new reality caused by an unprecedented disruption. While continuing with their VET policy agenda and addressing long-lasting challenges (e.g. early leaving from education and training or modernising qualifications), countries have worked to make education and training truly digital, ensuring access to computers and the internet to all students, providing training to teachers and trainers, developing flexible approaches to assessment. The concepts of quality, inclusiveness and flexibility are enjoying a renewed focus. With its different reporting formats, studies, interactive databases and toolkits for specific VET features and VET-related policies in Member States, Cedefop caters to varied information needs, purposes and stakeholders. Information on VET’s main features, its role and status is a prerequisite to understanding developments and learning from another country. We believe that this publication is a useful starting point for policymakers, social partners, experts and researchers. It will provide orientation to a range of other actors involved in VET-related activities: VET providers, teachers and trainers; guidance, qualifications and validation staff; and other readers who want to familiarise themselves with VET systems across Europe.
