The Swiss VPET system enables young people to enter the labour market and ensures that there are enough qualified workers and managers in the future. The VET and PET sectors are closely correlated with the labour market and are an integral part of the education system.

This brochure provides information about the structure and organization of VET and PET training arrangements in Switzerland and at the same time it offers an insight on the labour and apprenticeship market in the country to finally deliver statistical data on professional education and training.
