People with lower qualifications have neither vocational training nor a high school diploma but only a lower or intermediate secondary school certificate. In 2022, 17% of people aged 25-64 in Germany fell into this category. Children of parents with lower qualifications often had similar low qualifications (40%). This rate drops significantly if parents had higher qualifications: only 7% of children of parents with vocational or high school diplomas and 3% of children of parents with university degrees were low-qualified.
