Virtual Kick off: ETF KIESE evidence collection 2025

Every year, in partnership with its 29 partner countries, the European Training Foundation (ETF) collects key indicators needed to monitor trends and developments in education, skills, and employment. These efforts are known as the KIESE Initiative and culminate in the annual release of country progress reports (country fiches), as well as a cross-country report which, based on the collected data, provides key insights into national, regional, and international developments. The 2024 edition of the report can be accessed here. 

In preparation for the 2025 round of monitoring, the ETF is inviting the members of the KIESE data network to a meeting that will formally launch the 2025 evidence collection through its KIESE initiative. The meeting will provide participants with an overview of the data selected for the 2025 round, gather feedback, and offer an opportunity to discuss the next steps in the process, as well as the plans for the remainder of the year, including the in-person event. 

The working language of the meeting will be English, with interpretation available in Arabic and Russian
