Velde, Christine; Cooper, Tom
Education + Training, v42 n2 p83-92 2000
Interviews with 30 student apprentices, 12 vocational educators, and 15 employers indicated that (1) students were motivated by hands-on experiences and a head start on employment; (2) all groups felt the program developed social skills and work attitudes; and (3) teachers perceived problems not observed by students in school-to-work transitions and the status of vocational education.
