Report of the challenge to get a Business Plan for the restaurant Casa Paivense. It has been solved by students from Spain, Portugal, Slovenia, Italy, Greece and Bulgaria . Real Challenges for Vocational Educational Training Students
After a period of relative neglect in many countries, apprenticeships and other forms of work-based learning are experiencing a revival. Their effectiveness in easing school-to-work transitions and serving the economy is increasingly recognised. However, engaging individuals, employers, social partners and education and training systems in such learning remains a significant challenge. In light of this, Seven Questions about Apprenticeships draws out policy messages on how to design and implement high-quality apprenticeships, using material from the OECD project Work-based Learning in Vocational Education and Training.
It presents answers to seven questions commonly asked by governments and practitioners seeking to either introduce or reform apprenticeship systems for young people and/or older workers. Can apprenticeships provide a useful contribution in every country? Should employers receive financial incentives for providing apprenticeships? What is the right wage for apprentices, and how long should an apprenticeship last? How can we ensure a good learning experience at work? How can apprenticeships be made to work for youth at risk? And how to attract potential apprentices?
The study establishes principles of effective practice by building on new analytical work and examples of effective practice from around the world.

The added value of the transnational cooperation - Julia Frolicher, GIZ
1. Systemic evaluation in new policy
experimentation: results, quality and
impact of the FiTT project
Carlotta Rovesti, ENAIP Veneto
Julia Froelicher, GIZ
Brussels, 16 March 2016
2. Objective of FiTT project
The overall objective of FiTT is the experimentation
of innovative models of apprenticeship for
vocational qualification (“first level
apprenticeship”).
The project aims at implementing apprenticeship
models in the food and hospitality sector that refer
to the German model of ‘dual system’ and which
are in line with the new apprenticeship framework
(Law Decree 81/2015) of the Italian Ministry of
Labor.
3. Objective of FiTT M&E scheme
- it serves for the daily monitoring of the most important
milestones of the project
- it is designed in a way that impact of the project is
measured.
Furthermore, the M&E aims to
a) assess whether the intended results have been achieved
(to what extent)
b) learn for both current and future interventions in the field
of dual training schemes by generating feedback and
c) strengthen transparency of the FITT program.
4. Targets to be measured with the
FiTT M&E Scheme
FITT Targets

12. Results at the VET centres level
Change of mind for dual principles
The training offered for VET tutors reached reasonable participation (12 out of 17
participating centres). Nevertheless, VET tutors need more assistance to
understand the core dual ideas.
School and work training complementary – a major duty
Learning objectives in schools and companies are not complementary yet. VET
schools could not internalize the principle of strict cooperation between training
centre and company yet. Communication paths between schools and companies
are not standardized yet.
Recognize new responsibilities
VET tutors are not fully aware so far for the expanded responsibilities in guiding
and monitoring the in-company training. They need assistance and expanded
training in fulfilling their widened role.
Results based mainly on focus group discussion with VET tutors, in-company trainers and apprentices in
January 2017
13. Result at private sector companies level:
Dual apprenticeship means change of mentality
The change to the dual approach requires a mentality change among companies. The
companies involved in the pilot are generally open for the new approach but need more
assistance to internalize the central ideas of dual apprenticeship (“more than a contract”).
Recognize new responsibilities – Some way to go
Participating companies have started to incorporate tools for delivering and transferring
knowledge and skills. Nevertheless, companies need more advice for fulfilling their
widened responsibilities. So far, companies neither do organize the didactic path for the
apprentices nor interact much with VET tutors. Additionally, they have not integrated the
use of the Individual Training Plan into their regular procedures yet.
In-company tutoring – A challenge
Attracting more companies to attend the tutor training has been a major challenge.
Additionally, the delivered support and the 16 hours training course is just a very first step
to convey knowledge and skills to fulfil the new comprehensive role. There is the dilemma
of balancing the need for intensive training and the tight time frame of companies.
Uncertainty of legal framework
Companies feel uncertain in several legal aspects regarding the new apprenticeship
model and the contracting of apprentices.
Results based mainly on focus group discussion with VET tutors, in-company trainers and apprentices in
January 2017
14. Changes and challenges at the apprentices level
Perception of dual apprenticeship model
Apprentices of the pilot scheme are very open towards the new training model. The
students have rapidly adopted principles of dual apprenticeship and clearly favour
the new model compared to the traditional school based mode. Benefits perceived
are learning at real job situations, automatic adoption of soft skills, and possibilities
to carry responsibility right away.
Image of vocational training
The new dual apprenticeship model has instantly changed the picture of VET among
the participating apprentices. The modernization process has good potential to
increase the image of the vocational training path as such. Nevertheless, the
benefits have to spread intensively to reach potential students and their families as
well as potential employers.
Results based mainly on focus group discussion with VET tutors, in-company trainers and apprentices in
January 2017
15. Main Policy Recommendations
Training for VET tutors and in-company trainers: Continue to train VET-tutors and
in-company trainers and emphasize on their active supporting role for the learning
pathway in the company. Increase knowledge on core aspects of dual apprenticeship.
Training of multipliers: Train multipliers for the training of VET tutors and in-
company trainers. Standardize training content.
School-work cooperation: Strengthen the communication paths between VET
tutors and company tutors regarding learning objectives and the student’s progress.
Standardize exchange via e.g. regular short company visits of VET tutors or regular
short phone calls to update each other on the trainee’s progress
Encouragement of companies: Attract and encourage companies to engage in dual
apprenticeship, spread information on benefits and potentials of the dual
apprenticeship model, e.g. through information campaigns, information material and
through the internet
16. Main Policy Recommdations II
Constant support for companies: Install a mentoring system for company tutors.
Provide constant advice and support for companies engaged in apprenticeship in
addition to the tutor trainings (e.g. via contact persons).
Study visits: Proof possibilities to organize study visits for company holders and
tutors to German companies engaged in training in order to experience and discuss
dual training in practice.
Spread the experiences: Search dialogue with other regional and national
authorities to transfer the experiences to other regions. Search dialogue with MoL to
transfer the FTPs developed to national level.
Awareness raising: Launch extensive marketing and awareness creation campaigns
on national and regional levels for the new dual training approach and the
modernized occupational profiles among companies and in the society.
