Austrian research award for SFIVET researchers 

7/15/2010 

At the Austrian Conference on Vocational Education and Training Research held in Steyr on 8 - 9 July 2010, Annina Eymann and Jürg Schweri were awarded the 3rd prize for their study entitled „Arbeitsmarktmobilität von Personen mit beruflicher Bildung in der Schweiz“ (labour market mobility of VET graduates in Switzerland).

Annina Eymann and Jürg Schweri work in the research area “Strategic planning of the VET/PET sector“ at SFIVET. Their analysis showed that the labour market mobility of a representative sample of employees was the same regardless of whether they graduated from a programme in VET or in the general education sector. This means that VET skills can be applied in many different occupations and companies.

We congratulate them on their success!
