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.

En un contexto de débil recuperación económica, el acceso al empleo para los jóvenes de la Generación 2013 es ligeramente más favorable que el de la generación anterior. En 2016, tres años después de dejar el sistema educativo, uno de cada cinco jóvenes buscaba trabajo, y uno de cada dos jóvenes no graduados. Estos niveles se…
A European indicator, constructed in part using data from Céreq's Génération survey, shows that France is fairly well positioned when it comes to the time the country's students spend abroad in the course of their studies, even though the 2020 target has not yet been achieved. On the other hand, very few of the young people in vocational secondary education or apprenticeships go abroad as part…
Employment instability and economic uncertainty have increased in many industrialized countries in the last two decades, giving rise to perceived employment insecurity among workers. It has been shown that perceived job insecurity (PJI) significantly modifies economic behaviours such as saving, consumption and entry to further education, reduces job performance and generates adverse health and…
The authors (Catherine Béduwé, Arnaud Dupray and Assâad El Akremi) explore how perceived job insecurity (PJI) evolves with time among early careers using a cohort of French school leavers over the period 1998-2008. The study intends to clarify why PJI increases both with years of experience and tenure in a firm in contradiction with expectations. The human capital content of experience and…
When Education has finished
The book presents the detailed results of the large-scale national survey carried out in the spring of 2016 among young people who left education in 2013. Over the past twenty years, the Céreq has conducted a series of triennial surveys, with a representative sample of all young people leaving the education system in a given year. The main objective of these Generation surveys is to…
Against the background of a weak economic recovery, access to employment for young people in the 2013 cohort was slightly more favourable than for the preceding cohort. In 2016, three years after they had left the education system, one young worker in five was looking for a job; in the case of those with only lower secondary qualifications, the figure was one in two. These levels are…
