The studies focus on the very existence of this training pathway, its traditional rootedness in certain specialities at the secondary level of the education system and its recent expansion into higher education. These studies analyse the trajectories of individuals who have completed an apprenticeship-based training programme and demonstrate the clear advantage these young people enjoy in the labour market, at least for those leaving education at the secondary level. The studies are also concerned with the use that companies make of this training pathway (e.g. the extensive use of it in the construction and public works sector), which enables them to retain more of the young people trained in the sector.

Aimed at the most vulnerable among young people, the preparatory courses are designed to give them the opportunity to get to grips with the world of work. Depending on the participants and the young…
Young people from priority urban neighbourhoods leave the educational system with fewer qualifications than other young people, and with less work-linked training, particularly at secondary education level. Yet this type of training enables them, at least as much as others, to improve their chances of access to employment, and even more so to stable employment. These Génération survey…
Special edition: English full-text articles Germany is well-known internationally for its apprenticeship system, but do we really know it? The first objective of this thematic issue will be to go beyond the superficial (re) presentations of the German dual Vocational and Training system (VET system).
Initial vocational training for young people in France is structured around two pathways: the school-based pathway, with training provided in vocational high schools, and the apprenticeship pathway, when young people enter into a dual vocational training contract that requires them to spend alternating periods of time in the workplace and in apprentice training centres.
