About this data
With the aim of promoting international comparability, statistics presented on ILOSTAT are based on standard international definitions wherever feasible and may differ from official national figures. This series is based on the 13th ICLS definitions. For time series comparability, it includes countries that have implemented the 19th ICLS standards, for which data are also available in the Work Statistics -- 19th ICLS (WORK) database. Vocational education is education that prepares individuals to acquire specific skills for a particular trade or occupation. It focuses on practical applications of skills and knowledge needed for specific jobs or careers, often involving hands-on training, internships, or apprenticeships.
