Vocational Training Basque Plan

Business sector

Table 4 shows the employment rates over a period of four years among different graduating classes successfully completing vocational training programmes. The rate of incorporation is particularly high, with over half of the areas of specialisation included here reaching 80%. This means that eight out of ten degree holders enter the labour market and do not continue with their studies. The data is very reliable, since 100% of the students who completed their studies were surveyed each of the years included in the study.
