2 Outline Main Topics of the NEPS Adult Stage 8 Sample and Survey Design Questionnaire Design Data Availability Outlook 2

3 Main objectives of NEPS stage 8 Adult education and lifelong learning: Which factors influence the participation in formal, non-formal and informal learning activities? Development of competences during adulthood: Literacy in reading, mathematics, natural sciences, ICT, meta-cognition; Which factors affect the competence development in adult life? Returns to (previous) education: What kind of educational degrees will pay off? Effects of educational degrees and previous activities on current situation. -> Multidimensional returns to education (labor market, family, happiness, etc.) 3

4 Main Topics in Stage 8 4

5 Challenges of Stage 8 Starting point: a very heterogeneous sample Age (23-65) Education (from low to high skilled people) Consideration of different life contexts Adequate survey content (exciting content for each respondent) Consideration of different definitions Measuring competences of adults (both conceptually and organisationally) Integration of younger NEPS-Cohorts 5

6 Sample and Survey Design 6

7 Sample Strategy All individuals living in Germany who were born between 1944 and 1986, irrespective of the language they speak, their nationality or their employment status Sample of municipalities (250 municipalities/ 281 sample points) Stratification according to federal states and a classification of urbanization (BIK scale) Random selection of adresses of persons over the local registration offices in each sample point Representative design for the birth cohorts 1944 to
