The Continuing Vocational Training Survey (CVTS) is conducted every five years in all Member States of the European Union. The survey covers company provided training courses and other forms of continuing vocational training, as well as a few questions on apprenticeship training. As a business survey, the particular strength of the CVTS lies in examining the topic from the perspective of companies and addressing corporate training policies in detail.
This survey is based on a harmonised methodology and uniform definitions across Europe. Due to the standardised questionnaire used in all EU Member States, Europe-wide comparability is ensured.
Key results from the most recent survey on continuing vocational training (CVTS6) are available free of charge on our website.
Information and results at the European level can be found on the Eurostat website.
