{"product_id":"vocational-training-1","title":"Vocational Training","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe last decade has given rise to a strong public discourse in most highly industrialized economies about the importance of a skilled workforce as a key response to the competitive dynamic fostered by economic globalisation. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe challenge for different training regimes is twofold: attracting young people into the vocational training system while continuing to train workers already in employment. Yet, on the whole, most countries and their training systems have failed to reach those goals. How can we explain this contradiction? Why is vocational training seen to be an \"old\" institution? Why does vocational training not seem to be easily adapted to the realities of the 21st century? \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book seeks to respond to these important questions. It does so through an in-depth comparative analysis of the vocational training systems in ten different countries: Australia, Canada, Denmark, France, Germany, Korea, Mexico, Morocco, the United Kingdom and the USA. \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Taylor \u0026 Francis Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54246397411672,"sku":"9781138959750","price":70.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9781138959750_7bfaf572-79a3-4b73-bcf9-d7fb299eff16.jpg?v=1771382748","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/vocational-training-1","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
