Support for the European Graduate Tracking Initiative (EGTI)

Tracking the careers of graduates can help improve education systems. Experience abroad during studies, the design of the learning envi­ron­ment and study-related work expe­ri­ence are factors that con­tri­bu­te to the acqui­si­ti­on of com­pe­ten­ces and help to determine the basis for later success on the labour market. What do graduates do after obtaining their qua­li­fi­ca­ti­ons, and how do they self-assess the relevance of their studies are key questions.

The European Graduate Tracking Initiative (EGTI) aims to establish a Europe-wide mechanism for tracking graduates and thus provide the basis for coll­ec­ting com­pa­ra­ti­ve data on the effec­ti­ve­ness of higher education across Europe. Involving stake­hol­ders from EU Member States, Iceland, Liechtenstein and Norway, the roll-out of EGTI forms part of an intensive inter­na­tio­nal coope­ra­ti­on. 3s is sup­port­ing the European Commission in the estab­lish­ment, coor­di­na­ti­on, imple­men­ta­ti­on and moni­to­ring of a capacity-building programme in this area as part of an inter­na­tio­nal consortium.
