Adult education

Description

Adult Education Survey (AES) Purpose and brief description Adult education and training is now considered an important asset to promote economic growth and social (personal) development. In policy circles, this has created the need to collect statistical data on training attended in order to monitor population development (accumulated human capital) and to measure the knowledge, skills and competences acquired. After all, the volume of training activities is considered an important investment to achieve the objectives set by the policy. It must therefore be possible to measure and evaluate the number of training activities attended, thus allowing the policy to be adjusted and adapted efficiently. More specifically, the Adult Education Survey aims to measure the Belgian population's participation in lifelong learning. The aim is to obtain participation rates in all kinds of training: which respondents participate in which type of training. The survey makes a distinction between formal and non-formal education on the one hand and informal learning on the other. The Adult Education Survey was first conducted by Statbel in 2008. It was repeated in 2011, 2016 and 2022. It covers all types of adult education and training activities. This survey is commissioned and subsidised by Eurostat. The aim is to collect information that is comparable in all participating countries: participation rates in training and education broken down by age, gender and type of training, characteristics of the courses taken, etc. Population Individuals aged 18 to 69 since 2022 Data collection method and possible sampling CAWI and CAPI survey Periodicity Every six years since 2022, every five years before.
