Report of the UNESCO-UNEVOC virtual conference
This report explores questions related to the definition of quality, innovations and alternative forms of apprenticeships as a form of work-based learning, financing and governance, and curriculum development. This report also stresses the importance of apprenticeships and recognizes that such forms of training entail multi-stakeholder systems that require adequate arrangements, consensus and commitment from a series of different actors and institutions. An important message is that apprenticeship systems operate within the wider context of a country’s cultural traditions, norms, socio-economic conditions and individual aspirations. Countries striving to set up, upgrade or improve an apprenticeships or other forms of work based learning need to be aware that arrangements should respect and be adapted to the individual characteristics of their country and society.
