Towards a model apprenticeship framework: a comparative analysis of national apprenticeship systems

Abstract

This project was undertaken with funding from the International Labour Organization (ILO) and the World Bank. It was designed to inform the redevelopment of the Indian apprenticeship system. Government officials wanted to consider features of good practice from around the world. Ten expert international researchers were identified and provided case studies about their own countries' apprenticeship systems; a cross-case analysis produced a framework for a 'model apprenticeship system'. Measures of success for apprenticeship systems were also identified.
