Abstract

The Chair of Education Systems at the ETH Zurich, in collaboration with the apprenticeship platform Yousty, has surveyed Swiss training firms since the start of the COVID 19 pandemic in April 2020. The latest survey in March 2023 was the last of 29 survey waves for the time being. Results show that filling apprenticeship positions for this summer’s recruitment season is has become more difficult than last year. The situation has worsened once again for occupational fields that already struggled to fill vacant apprenticeship positions last year. It has also become even more difficult to recruit suitable apprentices this year. Training firms state that the attractiveness of apprenticeships has also declined somewhat since the beginning of the pandemic. Furthermore, a significant proportion of training firms are still reducing the number of apprenticeships they offer for the start of the apprenticeship programme in 2023. However, this applies in particular to small firms who do not recruit apprentices each year.
