Eurograduate 2022 - Austrian Implementation

ended

The project Eurograduate 2022 follows the Erasmus+ call “ERASMUS-EDU-2021-GRADUATE TRACKING-IBA”. Austria was invited to participate after expressing interest, and participating in the pilot project that preceded the call. The Federal Ministry of Education, Science, and Research, represented by Maria Keplinger, will act as coordinator, Helga Posset and Anna Woeckinger will also be part of the core project team. Austria will apply for Option 3, which includes Collection of Essential information (A), Recommended information (B), and European Module (C). The respective survey to complete all three models will be conducted by a research institute (subcontractor), and the available administrative data (mainly for plausibility checks, weighting) will be delivered by the national statistics agency, Statistics Austria. The project will be accompanied by an advisory board, with representatives from the four HE sectors (i.e. public and private universities, universities of applied sciences and university colleges of teacher education), the Austrian students union, as well as stakeholders from the labour market (e.g. Austrian labour market service, Chamber of commerce, Chamber of labour). The project duration is 24 months, starting from the date of signing the grant agreement.
