Continuing education tests aim at improving transparency of the quality of programmes on offer and initiating processes to improve quality at providers of continuing education. But what has the impact of continuing education tests been to date? The authors present selected results of an evaluation study. From a demand perspective, continuing education has not been transparent since the introduction of educational testing in 2002, either. 54% of the population and 59% of providers of continuing education which were surveyed consider comparative continuing education tests by Stiftung Warentest to be important; a majority of providers of continuing education are sceptical.

The use of continuing education tests by providers and other customers is on the rise, but market penetration could still be increas ed. in closing, the article proposes five fields of focus which could boost the effectiveness of continuing education tests.... view less

Die Weiterbildungslandschaft in Deutschland ist trotz einiger Verbesserungen für viele Nachfrager noch immer nicht hinreichend transparent. Ein relativ neuer Ansatz im Kontext der Bemühungen, die Transparenz zu verbessern, sind vergleichende Weiterbildungstests, die von der Stiftung Warentest durchgeführt werden.

Der folgende Artikel stellt Ergebnisse eines Forschungsprojektes zu den Wirkungen der Weiterbildungstests vor. Wie die Untersuchungsergebnisse zeigen, erzielen Weiterbildungstests auf Nachfrager- und Anbieterseite erkennbare Wirkungen; zugleich wird jedoch auch deutlich, dass die Marktdurchdringung noch ausbaubedürftig erscheint.... view less
