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.

However, although unemployment has increased, job quality has, on average, been maintained.Moreover, while vocational bachelor's degrees are proving successful, the other vocational qualifications do not all…

A first for Céreq's Génération survey: at the end of 2008, results showed that the unemployment rate for young women had fallen below that for their male counterparts. Higher shares of young men have no qualifications and consequently are suffering more than women from the decline in the number of unskilled jobs. Nevertheless, women still tend to be employed in less stable, lower-paid jobs.…
