Microcensus

In the period from January to December, a total of 1% of Germany's population in private households and collective living quarters will be selected using random sampling and the residents surveyed.

Teacher shortage is a challenge facing many schools, and information on teacher training is therefore highly relevant to educational policy discussions. What analyses regarding enrolment in teacher training degree programmes are possible based on higher education statistics?

An article in the current issue (2/2025) of our scientific WISTA journal describes the analytical opportunities offered by the new study pathway statistics, which support the evaluation of teacher training in Germany.
