Vocational education
After graduating from basic or secondary school, it is possible to continue studying at a vocation school in order to learn a trade. Vocational schools enrol adults as well. These schools provide professional education, teaching practical skills to start work as a welder, assembler, electrician, gardener, cook or hairdresser. Modern vocational education institutions offer many exciting specialties.
Vocational education statistics provide information, such as:
- how many vocational education institutions there are in Estonia and where they are located;
- which fields of study are available;
- how many vocational students and graduates there are.
Statistics on vocational education are necessary to make plans and decisions concerning vocational education.
