Information system for training and employment policy

The aim of using statistics in the evaluation of training is to gain an in-depth understanding of the vocational education and training (VET) system in relation to the labour market. Once definitions and methodology have been clearly established to identify the information and data to be collected, statistics relating to the training and employment market will help determine whether the organisation and level of skills are relevant to assessing how training systems respond to the dynamic composition of the skills base. Providing a coherent body of information to decision-makers is the holy grail for all governments in the field of training and employment.
