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.

La cuestión de las reconversiones profesionales está en el centro de los problemas actuales. Pero querer cambiar de profesión no garantiza la reconversión, y mucho menos que se encuentre un trabajo.

The question of retraining lies at the heart of current employment policy issues. However, wanting to change occupation is no guarantee of completing a retraining programme, even less of finding a job. While low-skilled blue- and white-collar workers are the ones most likely to seek a change, they are also the ones who benefit least from a retraining programme. Workers’ desires to retrain are…
High-school students from priority neighbourhoods face specific difficulties in obtaining the bac and going on to higher education. Above and beyond the effects linked to their social background, does the fact of living in a priority neighbourhood have its own impact on their post-bac trajectories and their education-to-work transition? Céreq and the Agence nationale de…
About the school to work transition
The theme chosen for this first issue - the School-to-Work Transition - underpins a large part of Céreq’s scientific activities since its inception. Written by a former Scientific Director of Céreq, José Rose, professor of sociology, the introductory article presents different transition models showing the various ways education and work can be organized and linked to each other, as well as…
En dos décadas, el lugar de las mujeres jóvenes en el mercado de trabajo ha mejorado: con más diplomas, más empleos; también se benefician con un comienzo de recuperación salarial y acceden a profesiones y sectores más similares a los de los hombres. Pero este acercamiento se debe en parte al deterioro de la situación de los hombres. Y a pesar…
And women became better qualified than men...
Over the last two decades across Europe, young women’s position in the labour market has improved. Better qualified and with participation rates on the increase, they have also begun to narrow the pay gap and to gain access to occupations and sectors that used to be largely male preserves. In France, however, this convergence between men and women has been driven in part by a deterioration in…
