Continuing Vocational Training Survey (CVTS)

Survey objectives

The objective of the survey is to measure enterprises' efforts in continuing vocational training. By Continuing Vocational Training, it is meant both in-house training provided in enterprises and training conducted by external organisations. It also includes many other ways of continuing vocational training, such as the guided on the job training, planned training, job rotation or training by exchanges with other services, study visits, attendance at learning or quality circles, self-directed learning, attendance at conferences, workshops, fairs and lectures.

The survey is conducted in all countries of the European Union. The results published by Eurostat will allow comparisons for all these countries.

The results of the survey will be published in various STATEC and Eurostat publications.

Implementation

The survey covers all economic activities except agriculture, public administration, education and health and social work. The scope of the survey is enterprises with 10 or more employees.

It is conducted through an electronic questionnaire to be completed by a representative sample of enterprises drawn on the basis of their size and economic activity.

Legal framework

The survey is based on the European Regulation (EC) No 1552/2005 of the European Parliament and the Council of 7 September 2005 on statistics on vocational training in enterprises, as well as the Regulation (EU) No 1153/2014 of the Commission of 29 October 2014.

Responses to questionnaires by enterprises are covered by statistical confidentiality guaranteed by Article 16 of the Law of 10 July 2011 on the organisation of the National Institute of Statistics and Economic Studies.
