Data from the Swiss TREE Panel Study (Transitions from Education to Employment)

Abstract

TREE (Transitions from Education to Employment) is a prospective inter-disciplinary mixed-mode panel study following up on post-compulsory education and employment trajectories of two Swiss compulsory school leavers' cohorts: TREE1 was launched as a PISA follow-up survey in 2000 (n t0 = 6343, n t10 in 2020 = 3882). TREE2 started in 2016 and draws on a national large-scale assessment of mathematics skills (n t0 = 8429, n t6 in 2022 = 4461). The panel is ongoing, further panel waves being planned for both cohorts. Data from both cohorts are available at the Swiss data archive SWISSUbase (www.swissubase.ch; reference number 12476).
