Adult training - Regions
<p>This dataset provides indicators on adult training in large regions (TL2).</p>
<p><strong>Data definition and source</strong></p>
<p>Adult training is measured here as a percentage of the population aged 25-64 participating in formal and/or non-formal education and training under two reference periods: in the past 4 weeks (source: Survey of Adult Skills PIAAC) and the past 12 months (source: Adult Education Survey (AES)).</p>
<p>Data are collected from Eurostat (reg_educ) for EU countries, and through delegates of the OECD Working Party on Territorial Indicators (WPTI) and the OECD Working Party on Education System Indicators (INES).</p>
<p><strong>Definition of regions</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Regions are subnational units below national boundaries. OECD countries have two regional levels: large regions (territorial level 2 or TL2) and small regions (territorial level 3 or TL3). For more information, see the OECD Territorial grid <a href="https://webfs-cfe.oecd.org/files/.Stat/region/OECD_territorial-grid_TL2024.pdf">(pdf)</a> and the OECD Territorial Correspondence Table <a href="https://webfs-cfe.oecd.org/files/.Stat/region/OECD%20Territorial%20correspondence%20-%20TL2024c.xlsx">(xlsx)</a>. </p>
