Results 2008: The Survey Population

Abstract

Approximately 700 trainees for the occupations of “electronics technician for power engineering and building systems” (crafts) and “electronics technician for process engineering” (industry) are participating in the COMET study. The first of these occupations is trained in the crafts sector while the second one is trained in the industrial sector. Whereas in Hessen it was necessary for economic reasons to draw a representative sample of about 400 trainees from both occupations, the small-scale environment in Bremen allows for a census with approximately 300 trainees.
