The Swiss university continuing education (UCE) system is embedded in a dynamic and competitive continuing education market. Supply and demand are increasingly focussed on the needs of working students, which relate to their immediate professional requirements and challenges. Potential work-related learning needs are thereby relevant for planning and developing UCE programmes. This study analyses factors of work-related learning needs from the students’ perspective as possible criteria in the selection of UCE programme or training. As result of an exploratoryempirical analysis, which re-contextualized work as a specific context in which learning needs emerge, a taxonomy based on three factors of work-related skills and metacompetences was identified.
