Term

School-to-work transition

Definition

The process of moving from education or training to employment, covering the period in which the change takes place.

Comment

Many guidance activities are designed to support people making this transition.
Transition between education and employment (integration path, type of employment – with regard to level and status – and duration) is complex. Integration depends on many factors (gender, age, qualification, employment policy, guidance and counselling provision, etc.).
