Abstract	By 1986, the idea that one period of initial training could be sufficient for an entire career already seemed outdated in the field of education. In-service training was no longer seen as a remedy for deficiencies in initial training, but was already beginning to be considered as a long- term process and a part of continuing education. Today, this concept is fully recognized and has also become more complex. Within this process of lifelong learning, some countries distinguish between: 1) continuing training, which - aimed mainly at updating and furthering the knowledge acquired during initial training - serves to refresh and upgrade professional skills; and 2) additional training, which, by providing new skills certified by new diplomas, gives teachers the possibility of changing direction within the profession. (...) This study covers the 15 Member States of the European Union and the EFTA/ EEA countries which now participate in the Eurydice network. It includes: 1) a summary of the structures of in-service training at pre- school, primary and lower and upper secondary levels; 2) an overview of in-service training leading to additional qualifications; 3) an analysis of all the practices, forms and content of in-service training schemes; 4) descriptions of in-service training in each country as well as a tabular presentation of the initial training of teachers.
