Identifying Vocational Education and Training.
Moodie, Gavin
Journal of Vocational Education & Training, v54 n2 p249-65 2002
Definitions of vocational education may be classified as epistemological, teleological, hierarchical, or pragmatic. No single classification is adequate to identify it across location and time. A definition should be a composite of the four categories: the development and application of knowledge and skills for middle-level occupations needed by society from time to time.
