VET for adults has gained importance in educational policy in Switzerland. Four institutionalised pathways now offer adults access to a vocational qualification, and this has led to a constant increase in the number of qualifications obtained. Nevertheless, low-skilled workers still find it difficult to achieve an initial qualification. The article summarises the take-up of the institutionalised pathways and also mentions further initiatives at federal and canton level. While this presentation illustrates progress, it also draws attention to continuing challenges.
