REGULATION (EC) No 1552/2005 OF THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND OF THE COUNCIL

of 7 September 2005

on statistics relating to vocational training in enterprises

(Text with EEA relevance)

THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community, and in particular Article 285(1) thereof,

Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,

Acting in accordance with the procedure laid down in Article 251 of the Treaty (1),

Whereas:

 

(1)

At the Lisbon European Council on 23 and 24 March 2000 the European Union set the strategic goal of becoming the most competitive and dynamic knowledge-based economy in the world, capable of sustained economic growth with more and better jobs and greater social cohesion.

 

(2)

The employability, adaptability and mobility of citizens are vital for the Union to maintain its commitment to becoming the most competitive and dynamic knowledge-based economy in the world.

 

(3)

Lifelong learning is a key element in developing and promoting a skilled, trained and adaptable workforce.

 

(4)

The Council Conclusions of 5 May 2003 on reference levels of European average performance in education and training (Benchmarks) (2) adopted the following benchmark for lifelong learning: ‘Therefore, by 2010, the European Union average level of participation in Lifelong Learning should be at least 12,5 % of the adult working age population (25 to 64 age group)’.

 

(5)

The Lisbon European Council confirmed lifelong learning as a basic component of the European social model.

 

(6)

The new European Employment Strategy confirmed by Council Decision 2003/578/EC of 22 July 2003 on guidelines for the employment policies of the Member States (3) aims to contribute better to the Lisbon strategy and to implement coherent and comprehensive strategies for lifelong learning.

 

(7)

When applying this Regulation, account should be taken of the notion of ‘people at a disadvantage in the labour market’ given in the guidelines for the employment policies of the Member States.

 

(8)

Particular attention should be given to training at the workplace and during working hours, both these aspects being crucial dimensions of lifelong learning.

 

(9)

Comparable statistical information at Community level, with specific respect to vocational training in enterprises, is essential for the development of lifelong learning strategies and for the monitoring of progress in their implementation.

 

(10)

The production of specific Community statistics is governed by the rules set out in Council Regulation (EC) No 322/97 of 17 February 1997 on Community Statistics (4).

 

(11)

The transmission of data subject to statistical confidentiality is governed by the rules set out in Regulation (EC) No 322/97 and in Council Regulation (Euratom, EEC) No 1588/90 of 11 June 1990 on the transmission of data subject to statistical confidentiality to the Statistical Office of the European Communities (5).

 

(12)

Commission Regulation (EC) No 831/2002 of 17 May 2002 implementing Council Regulation (EC) No 322/97 on Community Statistics, concerning access to confidential data for scientific purposes (6) established the conditions under which access to confidential data transmitted to the Community authority may be granted.

 

(13)

Since the objective of this Regulation, namely the creation of common statistical standards that permit the production of harmonised data on vocational training in enterprises, cannot be sufficiently achieved by the Member States and can therefore be better achieved at Community level,...
