Abstract

Iceland is actively transforming its vocational education system to enhance its prestige and expand opportunities for graduates, particularly by facilitating access to higher education. This study analyzes the dynamics of vocational education graduates' access to higher education in Iceland over the past two decades, including the 2021 legislative changes that formalized the recognition of vocational qualifications for university admission. The analysis identifies the contradictions between preparing students for professional careers and ensuring their readiness for higher education, which will shape the future development of vocational education in Iceland.
