Abstract

PICE is an in depth-study of TREE (TREE2 - Transition von der Erstausbildung ins Erwerbsleben) that deals with the educational pathways of young adults and is particularly interested in how they are accompanied by their families on their way to professional life: PICE wants to analyse what educational aspirations young people in Switzerland have and whether or how they are supported by their parents. https://www.pice.unibe.ch/index_eng.html For more information on TREE2 see: Hupka-Brunner, Sandra; Krebs-Oesch, Dominique Fabienne; Sacchi, Stefan; Meyer, Thomas (2022).
