Attractiveness of vocational education and training

Capacity of vocational education and training systems to:

  • encourage the deliberate choice of VET;
  • offer quality qualifications that open career prospects;
  • persuade employers to recruit holders of VET certificates.
Comment

Attractiveness of VET depends on various factors:

  • image of VET and parity of esteem with other pathways;
  • flexibility of pathways allowing mobility between VET and academic education; quality of VET offer;
  • involvement of stakeholders – including social partners – in VET and in the provision of lifelong guidance.
