„VET (Anm.: VET= Vocational education and training) can play a crucial role in tackling youth unemployment. During economic downturns, such as the 2008 recession, they have been found to be a powerful tool for addressing youth unemployment in countries such as Austria, Germany and Switzerland. These countries’ relative success relied on the efficient use of vocational training and apprenticeship institutions.“
