Labour market forecasts by education and occupation up to 2024

As part of the Education and Labour Market Project (POA)1, the Research Centre for Education and the Labour Market (ROA) develops a number of research activities aimed at a better understanding of the medium-term developments in supply and demand on the Dutch labour market. These activities include analyses of the match between skills supply and demand, the development of labour market indicators for the current equilibrium between supply and demand, and labour market forecasts of supply and demand by industry, occupation, education, and region. The indicators for the current state of the labour market as well as the medium-term forecasts are gathered in an online database: the Labour Market Information System (AIS).2 This database is updated on a yearly basis. The POA project was initiated by ROA in 1986 to increase the transparency of the labour market for youngsters in order for them to make better informed decisions on their education.
