Need of a domain on “education and the labour market” (ELM) LFS results on education (LFS-E) are more and more used in policy making and benchmarking Data on educational attainment are among the most requested by users Need to develop specific LFS-E indicators for use in policies other than employment Need to develop further a specific metadata system and quality evaluation for LFS-E indicators Major concern: Compatibility ELM with standard LFS methods (including dissemination) Therefore the ELM will be linked as much as possible to the LFS domain in NewCronos
