Title: The Training of Schoolleavers
Abstract: This research memorandum deals with the determinants of training of school-leavers in the Netherlands. Two different sorts of training are compared: industrial training and apprenticeship (''dual'' education). Because industrial training can be considered as a form of firm-specific training and apprenticeship as a form of general training, the two forms of training have entirely different functions. Apprenticeship is mainly an alternative educational track for school-leavers from Junior Secondary Vocational Education while, for school- leavers, industrial training serves mainly as a substitute for any deficiencies in their skills.
