"The Education and Training Monitor is the European Commission's annual report on EU education and training systems, and their progress towards reaching the EU-level targets adopted as part of the 2021 Council Resolution on a strategic framework for European cooperation in education and training towards the European Education Area (EEA). It comprises this comparative report, 27 country reports and an online Monitor Toolbox with the most prominent data and sources used to analyse education and training systems in the EU. Referred to in the remainder of this report as the 2021 EEA strategic framework Resolution. The Education and Training Monitor covers all EU education systems. The online Monitor Toolbox also includes the results for the EEA/EFTA and candidate countries whenever data are available. The comparative report looks at the most noticeable differences across EU countries and striking changes over time. It tracks progress towards reaching the seven EU-level targets (Box 1) and complements them with numerous supporting indicators to shed light on context and possible policy levers. The 2023 edition starts off with a special focus on the teaching profession, zooming in on teacher shortages across EU countries, as well as their various efforts to make teaching more attractive. This special focus is a direct response to the 2021 EEA strategic framework Resolution and the 2023 Council Resolution on the EEA."
