In this section we sum up our recommendations on how you can ensure that the acquired skills are used at the workplace.
The recommendations build on the following questions:
- How to assess the companies’ satisfaction with VET completers’ performance?
- How to assess the VET-providers expectations regarding VET results?
- How to assess students’ satisfaction with their own performance in practice?
- How to process and present the data?
We recommend that you, together with other stakeholders:
- Build up a quality assurance approach to secure that the acquired skills are used at the work place
- Select and structure the consultation and collaboration among stakeholders (aimed at improving that the acquired skills are used at the work place)
- Define the sector/professional domain (with the participation of all stakeholders)

- Develop and use instruments to measure the match of supply and demand (including measuring the satisfaction of employers and graduates on quality)
- Develop and use instruments to predict trends and developments (in labour demand and VET supply)
- Develop a structure and tools for how to share the data, analysis and conclusions (to ensure that the acquired skills are used at the work place) with all stakeholders
- Develop procedures to use the evaluations for adjustment (on quality of the students)
