Description: Taking the commonly agreed political priorities for better employability of the labor force, better match between training supply and demand, and better access to vocational training and education as a starting point, the study presents a set of eight indicators as an instrumental part of a comprehensive European strategy for quality in vocational education and training (VET).  The practical use of indicators is illustrated by several national examples (Belgium/Flanders, Denmark, Italy, France, Spain, England, Ireland, The Netherlands, Finland), and international and European indicators systems are analyzed to check their usefulness for quality.--Publisher summary
