Company training in Baden-Württemberg back to pre-Covid 19 pandemic levels.
› Arbeitsmarktpolitik
In the first half of 2023, the proportion of companies in Baden-Württemberg that were active in further training increased significantly from 48% to 56% compared to the previous year. All forms of continuing education recorded an increase. This growth was particularly strong in self-directed learning. This form of further training is used most in companies with 500 or more employees. However, there has also been an increase of around 30 percentage points in small and micro companies in the country since 2019.
The study also shows that people with a low level of qualification continue to participate less frequently in further training measures than those with higher qualifications. In addition, the continuing education rate for women remains higher than that of men.
The report (in German) was commissioned by the Ministry of Economic Affairs, Labor and Tourism and is based on data from the IAB Establishment Panel.
