Choy S., Wärvik G.-B., Lindberg V. (Eds.) Integration of Vocational Education and Training Experiences: Purposes, Practices and Principles

Springer, 2018. — 382 p. — (Technical and Vocational Education and Training: Issues, Concerns and Prospects 29). — ISBN: 978-981-10-8856-8.The key interest of this edited book is in integration of students’ learning experiences across vocational education institutions and workplace settings. This is nowadays a central aspect of vocational education within universities, technical and vocational institutes, upper secondary schools and enterprise-based training environments. Such educational goals came about, and have been driven by transnational organisations and governmental decisions, in response to a changing world of work, unemployment, global workforce mobility and a new economy – all acknowledging risks and uncertainties.Provision and Integration of Work Experiences Within Vocational Education
