Abstract	"International large scale assessment programmes mostly concentrate on measuring and comparing general competences of students in compulsory education or adults in everyday life; concepts for measuring young adults' competences in specific vocational domains are lacking. The paper addresses the need for competence measurement in vocational education and training and illustrates future demands for the implementation of an international large-scale assessment of vocational education and training (VET-LSA). It discusses possible measurement approaches for vocational competences and outlines why methods for measuring internal conditions (dispositions) by tests instead of external measurement by observation are the favourite option. The measurement of cross-country differences in the level and distribution of vocational competences could break new grounds and provide standardised and internationally comparable indicators for benchmarking of VET and a basis for adequate classification of learning outcomes in classification systems, such as the EQF."
