The INFPC's Training Observatory analyses employees' access to training and companies' training efforts, using data collected in the context of applications for the co-funding of in-company training.
The data relating to in-company training in Luxembourg is collected from Luxembourgish private-sector companies receiving public co-funding for continuing vocational training. The applications made by these companies make it possible to analyse their training practices.
In 2022, 2.395 Luxembourgish companies in the private sector received financial support from the State to finance their training plan. These companies dedicated 1,5% of their payroll to training. Employees took, on average, 5,1 training courses lasting 3,2 hours. On average, a training course cost 183 euros per participant and 57 euros per hour. State support for continuing vocational training (CVT) came to 39,4 million euros.
In 2022, 2.395 companies received financial support from the State for training. These companies, either individually or grouped together with other companies, made up for a total of 1.795 co-funding applications. At a national level, 32,4% of private companies with 10 employees or more received State support and 58,5% of all private-sector employees were potentially concerned by in-company training.
Companies receiving State support dedicated 1,5% of their payroll to training. On average, training courses cost 183 euros per participant and 57 euros per hour. The services offered by training providers represented 28% of companies' training investment. The "Technical/Core-business-related" subject area accounted for 41,6% of companies' training investment and for 41,9% of training hours completed.

These three subject areas together attracted 75,5% of those participating in training courses.
On average, managers participate in more training courses (8,7) than executives (6,9), qualified employees (5,2) and non-qualified employees (2,1).
