What is the PISA-
VET initiative aiming
to achieve?
VET has fueled phenomenal economic growth in some countries
and fallen short of expectations in others. Yet, currently, it is
impossible to compare the achievements of VET programmes in
one country with those in another.

Focus on selected occupational areas
The occupational area is important in VET and in the labour
market.
The occupational area comprises a student population
which is large enough to come to reliable and valid
judgments on important parts of VET and the labour market.
The occupational area is of significant economic and societal
importance and is likely to remain so.
The occupational area requires mainly professional (VET)
skills.
The occupational area is sufficiently comparable at the
international level.
Resources are available to support measurement of skills in
the occupational area (e.g. internationally validated task
inventories and simulation environments).
The occupational area has strategic importance in relation
to the digital and/or green transformation.
The occupational area represents both male and female
learners.
Selection criteria

For each occupational
area, the framework:
DEFINES the domain/occupation for the
assessment in broad and holistic terms
DESCRIBES the context for the occupation.
PRESENTS the processes involved in the
occupation from the first contact with the
delivery of the product
SETS OUT the underlying capabilities, skills
and competences required to complete the
processes for the occupation
ELABORATES the knowledge content required
for the occupation
Target Population
Students, apprentices and trainees in
the last six months of their initial VET
programmes, corresponding to ISCED
levels 3-4 and EQF levels 3-4, or
equivalents.

In addition to occupational-specific skills, VET graduates
also need employability skills that are relevant for all
occupations
PISA-VET will measure key transversal employability skills using existing OECD frameworks and instruments

Building on the experiences of ASCOT
and ASCOT + in Germany and
WorldSkills International, PISA-VET will
measure applied skills in realistic
workplace environments

Three assessment types to demonstrate
professional skills
Data on comparative skill levels of learners across countries within specific VET
programmes.
Type #2
Interactive simulations of workplace tasks
Type #1
Knowledge assessment
Type #3
Demonstration tasks to efficiently generate
insights about learners’ practical skills

PISA-VET becomes
the world’s premier yardstick
for comparing quality,
equity, and efficiency in VET
learning outcomes across
countries
