This study, funded by ANTA, is an interpretive examination of on and off-job sites as learning environments. Its approach sought to uncover constructs and explore meanings that apprentices, workplace mentors and TAFE teachers develop and place on their worlds, in particular on integrated training. The general aim of the research was to establish a picture of integrated training, and the specific aims were to: analyse the relative contributions of the workplace and provider environments to the learning of apprentices; explore how they might best complement each other for the benefit of apprentices; and identify the enabling factors and barriers to establishing integrated models of training. A general conclusion is that such learning journeys as apprenticeships/traineeships are essentially about relationships, trust, commitment and common goals. The report concludes with implications for training and learning theory, policy and practice, and research, and with a summary of the study’s key findings and themes. Show less
