Education, Work, Guidance in Sweden

This publication is intended to provide information for guidance practitioners and other professionals involved in the world of education, work and training.

It is meant as a first step for those interested in how these areas function in Sweden.

The responsibility for different forms of education and for labour market and guidance issues is divided between several Swedish authorities. Therefore the information is not always easy to find for those who are not familiar with the Swedish system.

This text presents information from the different areas as well as offering an overview and a guide to further information.

The publication results from a collaboration between several national authorities at the initiative of Euroguidance Sweden, the Swedish National Resource Centre for Guidance.

It is financed with support from the European Union Leonardo da Vinci programme.
