The BIBB Establishment Panel on Qualification and Competence Development (BIBB Training Panel) has been conducted annually since 2011. It is a representative panel survey of about 2,000 and from 2014 of about 3,500 firms in Germany. 

The population of the BIBB Training Panel comprises all firms in Germany with at least one employee subject to social insurance contributions as of 31 December of the previous year of the survey. The surveys are carried out as Computer Assisted Personal Interviews (CAPI).

The focus of the study is on firm structure and developments with regard to vocational education and training (VET), continuing training, human resource management. In all waves of the survey, other key topics, such as technology or VET and employment of people with a refugee background, supplement the base information.
