Alla-Mensah, Joyceline; McGrath, Simon – Journal of Vocational Education and Training, 2023
Skills training in the informal economy, known as informal apprenticeship, caters to the skills needs of millions of young people in the Global South. While it predates the development of formal Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET) systems, it was not until the 'discovery' of the informal economy in the 1970s that attention was…

Bastges-Lienshöft, Christina; Bach, Rüdiger; Schmidt, Barbara Maria; Schabmann, Alfred – Journal of Vocational Education and Training, 2023
Criteria lists of academic skills are widely used to assess the work readiness of people who are looking to enter or re-enter the apprenticeship market. These instruments represent a particular hurdle in the path to vocational training for low-skilled would-be trainees. We investigate the validity of one such list used in Germany. As different…

Friedrich, Anett – Journal of Vocational Education and Training, 2023
In Germany, about half of the school-leavers -- irrespective of their school-leaving certificate -- start an apprenticeship instead of entering the labour market or university.

Mirchandani, Kiran; Bhutani, Asmita – Journal of Vocational Education and Training, 2023
A great deal of hope is pinned on experiential learning initiatives for young people.

In order to provide…

Kaur, Balwant – Journal of Vocational Education and Training, 2023
The VET sector can be located as one that sits within the intersections of the racial and spatial in addition to the classed; the traditional focus of research concerns. There is a direct correlation between towns and cities with high levels of deprivation and the recruitment of racialised and other marginalised groups into general further…

Yet 'race' remains largely absent from policy debate and research concerning further education colleges in the four countries of the UK, particularly in…

Rusert, Kirsten; Stein, Margit – Journal of Vocational Education and Training, 2023
