attractiveness of vocational education and training | CEDEFOP

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 educational 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.
