The rediscovery of the value of apprenticeships has been one of
the most significant trends in vocational education in recent
years, and has prompted an array of research and development
projects in countries around the world. In this volume, the renewed
interest in the apprenticeship tradition and the various steps
towards the implementation of innovative apprenticeship programmes
are analysed and discussed from different perspectives.
Beginning with a number of chapters that describe recent
developments in apprenticeship training in different national
contexts, the book moves on to analyze the way in which both the
quality and profitability of apprenticeship act in concert as the
most influential drivers of innovation in this field.
In sum, this book makes an important contribution to the
international literature on apprenticeship. It draws together some
of the leading researchers in the area, and with its overview of a
number of national Vocational Education and Training (VET)
projects, provides a body of knowledge on current practices and
issues that has previously been lacking in this complex
interdisciplinary field. The lessons learned from countries'
experiences, as presented in this book, provide a valuable platform
for policy-makers and scholars alike.
