This article presents the status of research and findings on continuing education at migrant-owned firms on the basis of a company survey from 2013. Differences in participation in continuing education are shown in accordance with company size categories, economic branches and level of education of company owners. The results give rise to the supposition that both influences related to company structure and further impacts brought about by migration must be taken into account as causes for the low level of continuing education participation at firms run by migrants. Possible approaches for further investigation are proposed.
