The number of teaching staff entering vocational training in Switzerland contrasts strongly with those entering general-education schools at secondary level. Differences are also apparent in the pedagogic training and in the motives behind career choices. This article provides an introductory outline of these differences and presents the motives for the choice of a teaching career based on an empirical study. In conclusion, the results of the study are discussed with regard to the recruitment of vocational school teachers, their satisfaction with their career and potential methods for support.
