The paper gives an overview of the planning, research framework, and sampling design of Taiwan Education Panel Survey (TEPS) and its follow-up project, Taiwan Education Panel Survey and Beyond (TEPS-B). TEPS surveyed about twenty thou- sand senior high, vocational senior high, and vocational junior college students as well as about the same number of junior high students in 2001. A follow-up study was conducted in 2003. In 2005 and 2007, TEPS continued its follow-up studies of about 4,200 students selected from the aforementioned junior high student sample to gather information about their schooling experiences at senior high schools or vocational junior colleges. At the same time, TEPS also surveyed about 16,000 students who were class- mates of these 4,000 students. TEPS-B was initiated in 2009 with the aim of continuing follow-ups of these youngsters to collect information about their further development in education and participation in the labor market. TEPS-B expects to delineate the life-trajectories of these two cohorts born between 1984 and 1989 through the building of longitudinal data. The datasets will be an important research asset as well as a basis for the policy planning of educational and human resources.
