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.

Switzerland seems to be blessed indeed: low unemployment rate, pride of place given to vocational training and apprenticeships, close links between training programmes and the labour market … Over and above all that, this project encourages us to discover the mechanisms at work, and the challenges they present.
Apprenticeship contracts: why they are breached
In order to reduce the numbers of apprenticeship training contracts which fail to be completed, the reasons for these failures have to be determined. The results of this study show that in some cases, the outcome was not actually negative and that some other cases would no doubt have been difficult to prevent.
