Background: With the purpose of increasing the level of physical activity (PA) among Danish adolescents the Danish government initiated a large scale vocational school reform in 2015 requiring that vocational schools must ensure that students are physically active 45 min every day. Purpose: To investigate how many students' experience 45 min of PA per day as required by the Danish vocational school reform and to study possible associations between attitudes to PA and different student characteristics for instance students' self-reported fitness level. Methods: Using a cross-sectional questionnaire vocational education students' attitudes and experiences with PA in school was assessed and combined with background questions about age, gender, self-reported PA in school and self-reported fitness level. Results: 678 students with an average age of 17.2 (SD = 2.1) answered all questions. This study showed that Danish vocational school students self-reported 23.6 (SD = 16.6) minutes of PA per day. Only 18.3% of male students and 13.3% of female students self-reported 45 min of PA per day as required by the vocational school reform. This study also showed that Danish vocational school students had a relatively positive attitude to implementing PA in school. Self-reported fit students had a more positive attitude than self-reported unfit students and likewise students in the PA-high group presented a more positive attitude compared to the PA-low group. In addition, significantly more students with PA allocated on their lesson timetable were in the PA-high group. Students that were glad to attend the BP1 in general also had a more positive attitude towards implementing PA in school. Furthermore, students who were highly satisfied with the vocational schools' facilities for PA were more likely to be in the PA-high group.

Vocational Education and Training (VET) is offered throughout the world to students of various educational backgrounds and career aspirations in an effort to create a skilled workforce. The structure of VET varies greatly across different fields and countries with high-growth, low-growth, and transitional economies. However, a common critique of many vocational institutions is that they focus on skills training without addressing related business systems. Thus, students may not understand the business strategies related to their field, which stifles job readiness and entrepreneurial potential. To counter this, a more context-driven and integrated entrepreneurial approach is proposed for VET. Benefits, disadvantages, and exemplars of various types of vocational and entrepreneurial programs are evaluated to determine how their strengths might be leveraged. Such integrated entrepreneurial and vocational training would more suitably address context-specific market needs via both practical and transferrable skills, thus helping to reduce unemployment, particularly among youth in sub-Saharan Africa.

Within compulsory education, prevocational education is intended primarily to introduce participants to the world of work. This book considers curriculum design and pedagogical practice in pre-vocational education during the last two years of compulsory education. The study focuses on seven European countries (Scotland, Latvia, Poland, Hungary, Germany, Austria, Portugal) and presents an analysis of the curriculum as it relates both to knowledge-based competencies in economics and business and to self- and social competencies. It then discusses the differences between the prescribed and the enacted curriculum as identified by means of a subsequent survey of teachers. The authors conclude with a comparative assessment of each country case study, combined with supranational recommendations.

A atuação de professores na modalidade educação profissional técnica de nível mé- dio (EPTNM) na área da saúde, especificamente na enfermagem, é de fundamental importância, tendo em vista o contingente numérico de trabalhadores técnicos de enfermagem (e auxiliares) e a relevância das ações de cuidado pelas quais se responsabilizam nos cenários da saúde, nos distintos níveis de atenção. O objetivo deste relato de experiência é descrever e apontar algumas reflexões acerca do projeto de extensão, "Formação de professores de escolas técnicas: interfaces com a licenciatura em enfermagem", apoiado pela Pró-Reitoria de Cultura e Extensão da Universidade de São Paulo desenvolvido desde agosto de 2016, explicitando também outras atividades voltadas à formação permanente do professor que o antecederam. São destacados aspectos importantes em relação aos processos e aos produtos que compõem esse projeto, sendo pontuadas reflexões e tendo em vista as suas implicações para os envolvidos. Trata-se de uma proposta que, voltada à qualificação da formação do professor enfermeiro e do aluno da EPTNM na área da saúde/enfermagem, pode promover a articulação universidade-escola técnica contribuindo com o fortalecimento do compromisso social da universidade com a educação e a saúde.
