Project Mission

EDU-LAB is a European research project focused on understanding and improving the pathways and transitions of young people (aged 15–30) in education and training (E&T) and their entry into the labour market. With an emphasis on equity and inclusion, the project examines participation, progression, and completion rates in secondary and tertiary education as well as vocational training. By analyzing policies, investments, and systemic factors across the European Education Area, EDU-LAB aims to identify effective strategies to promote inclusion, reduce early school leaving, and boost work-based learning opportunities.

OSES-Delphi Survey is now live

We are inviting educators, experts, policymakers, practitioners, researchers, and other relevant stakeholders to take part in the first round of the EDU-LAB OSES-Delphi study.

The survey gathers expert views on the future of youth education, training, labour-market transitions, institutions, policy support, and inclusion. Your contribution will help inform EDU-LAB’s research and support evidence-based reflection on young people’s professional pathways across Europe.
