The aim of this article is to provide a systematic overview of the indicator-based representation of the effects of continuing vocational education and training in national education reporting in Germany. For this purpose, effect dimensions are systematised in a results chain and the sub-areas of continuing vocational education and training are delineated. The analysis of relevant national reports shows that the sub-areas are covered very unevenly, and that mainly publicly funded measures are presented. Descriptive indicators on educational success and outcomes predominate, while only few analytical outcomes, and none that target the impact dimension, are present in the reviewed reports. Prospects for further development lie both in improved data use and at the conceptual level of education reporting.
