To investigate individual trajectories is to get to grips with career trajectories and initial and continuing training pathways. Céreq analyses all these trajectories and pathways and their evolution, in a context in which there tends to be greater permeability between employment and education/training and between initial and continuing education/training. Céreq bases its studies on field observations, interviews and statistical surveys. Among the last named, the Générations surveys (a national programme that tracks the early years of the working lives of young people with all levels of education and training) and the Defis surveys (on continuing training for employees) provide insights into these trajectories in all their complexity and over their entire duration.

During their first three years in the labour market, almost one young person out of six in the cohort gained rapid access to stable employment. Even among those with five years' higher education or PhDs, the children of managers and executives (cadres) are more likely to follow trajectories leading them to stable employment. The impact of social background on qualifications obtained has repercussions subsequently on labour market entry…

La crisis ha afectado especialmente a los jóvenes en Europa. En la mayoría de los países, el aumento del desempleo juvenil hasta niveles inéditos estuvo acompañada por un deterioro de la calidad de su empleo en el período 2006-2012. Así, desempleo y mala calidad de los empleos evolucionaron juntos, de tal manera que ningún país logró bajar el desempleo a cambio de la degradación de la calidad…
