In just over a decade, Vocational Training has become a true benchmark in terms of employability.
According to the latest Observatory of Occupations of the SEPE (State Public Employment Service), the employability rate of Vocational Training today far exceeds that of the University.
In 2020, university graduates have ceased to be the most demanded candidates by companies. The minimum educational level requested in job offers reveals a most surprising fact: 40.1% of offers require Intermediate or Higher Grade Vocational Training, compared to 33.7% that require a university degree, according to the Infoempleo Adeco 2021 report. Today, a vocational training opens more doors, in terms of employment, than a university degree.
