To ensure that young people and adults acquire the skills they need to render them employable, vocational education and training systems around the world construct various forms of collaboration between the public and private sectors. Public-private partnerships (PPPs) that focus on skills development are one form of collaboration in the provision of vocational education and training (VET). Volume I [available in VOCEDplus at TD/TNC 143.377] proposes a three-dimension typology of PPPs for skills development, and identifies common elements and governance characteristics of these PPPs. The analysis relies on evidence from country case studies concerning the purpose of the partnerships, their scope and membership, governance, financing and risk management arrangements, as well as the motivation, role and capacities of the partners. Volume II contains these 23 case studies, described and reviewed according to the analytical categories of the European Training Foundation's (ETF) study methodology.
Chapter 1 presents 10 cases coming from countries that have a long tradition of public-private cooperation in vocational education and skills development: Italy, the Netherlands, Norway, Israel, France, Sweden, Germany, Morocco, Australia and Belgium. Chapter 2 presents 13 cases coming from four countries that are now in the process of building a tradition of public-private cooperation in vocational education: Jordan, Kazakhstan, Serbia and Ukraine.
