Alemanha: aprender com quem é melhor

"Germany’s culture of dual educational and vocational training programmes has never been short of admirers, including British education secretaries of the present and the past, the Chinese communist party and the daughter of the current US president. 

Its advantages are hard to ignore: around half of each year group in Germany do not go on to complete a university degree bbut a three-year apprenticeship with a company, of which they spent about 50% learning “on the job” and 50% at a vocational training school.

The 325 recognised dual training occupations are wide-ranging, including carers for the elderly, bakers, booksellers, architectural draughtsmen or bow makers.

Through the mix of practical and theory-based learning, trainees acquire skills that tend to be well matched to the needs of employers and can be plugged into businesses with relative ease: before the onset of the Covid-19 pandemic, youth unemployment in Germany hit a record low of 5.6%."
