Vocational continuing education by gainfully employed persons – the explanatory power of activity-related features for continuing education behaviour
Socio-demographic, company and employment data is often used to explain continuing education behaviour of individuals. Even though continuing education needs arise directly in the job context, job-related aspects are less frequently taken into account – not least due to the availability of data. This has been made possible, however, by a representative survey of around 20,000 employed persons conducted in 2006. The following multivariate analyses show that these traits have a significant influence on individuals’ participation in continuing education. In particular job qualification requirements, but also occupational activities as well as learning requirements or demands for creativity in the job environment are positively correlated with participation in formalised continuing education in courses and studies programmes, but also in informal continuing education such as e.g. learning at conferences, trade fairs or by reading the trade literature. Factors which appear to be less important with respect to job-related forms of learning include familiarisation with a new job or task or on-the-job training, supervision and coaching.
