OECD: better chances with company based training

Studying is the best life insurance, so it said long. In the meantime, however, vocational training almost equally protects against unemployment, a new OECD study shows: 25- to 34-year-olds with completed company-based training earn almost the same employment rate (83 percent) in Germany as their peers with a university degree (87 Percent).

„For those who do not want to study, professional qualifications provide a sure path to employment,“ says the report Education at a Glance, presented by the OECD, the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development, on 10 September.
