Witnessing
Evolution - A report on the growth of Workplace Learning in Australian
Schools to 1999

title/Witnessing_Evolution-4YL3C8?opendocument
Witnessing Evolution documents a pattern of growth and change for school-industry
programs with workplace learning. In 1995 fewer than half the Australian
secondary schools with Year 11 and 12 students provided some form of program
that included industry placements. In 1999 that figure was an estimated
86%. The findings also highlight a concentration of students in the tourism
and hospitality and business and clerical industries. This report also
discusses the school-based new apprenticeships program and compares the
management of these programs with non-apprenticeship programs.
