This high level international interest was also reflected in discussions of tripartite constituents at the 2012 International Labour Conference’s committee on youth employment, which called for the promotion of quality apprenticeships, including in developing countries. In this context, the ILO and World Bank in 2012 jointly conducted a study to review international experience in apprenticeships and identify good practice principles based on the cross-country analysis. This report contains case studies on eleven countries’ apprenticeship systems, a cross-case analysis and the development of a framework for a model apprenticeship system. The countries chosen reflect a mix of developed and developing countries, with apprenticeship systems of differing stages of maturity. The country case studies further confirm that better and more broadly available apprenticeships can reduce youth unemployment and poverty when combined with national efforts to spur job growth. The evidence and lessons drawn from their experience provide both motivation and practical recommendations for making apprenticeship a more attractive and a more efficient pathway to productive and decent jobs for more young people. We commend this report to you as an example of high-quality technical inputs on skills policy and evidence of effective collaboration between our two organisations.

  • Gap Year Guide What Is It and Is It Right for Me?
    Gap Year Guide What is it and is it right for me? What is a Gap Year? An intentional period of time between high school graduation and starting college for a student to learn more about their interests, values and what they would like for their future. A structured opportunity for high-quality experiences such as an internship, traveling, and volunteer efforts like Americorps, CityYear, and Global Citizen Year. There is a full intent for the student to start college a year (or semester) after graduating from high school. It is NOT working a standard job in the community, playing video games, “hanging out,” or living with parents. Is working in my community for a year considered a gap year? Usually not. Taking a year break between high school and college to work a job that does not require a college degree is called “delayed enrollment” and it usually derails a student’s educational pursuits. How might a year off impact me? There are countless stories of students who intended to go to college after a “year off,” and never did, or took many years off. Working a minimum wage job while living with parents is not a different enough experience to add to your personal growth. Like many in this situation, you could end up in a low-wage unskilled job and get stuck in an earning-money and paying bills cycle. However, a true gap-year program (like CityYear, Americorps, or Global Citizen Year) could add tremendous experiences and skills that will help you better know yourself and learn what you’d like to do (or not do) with your life.

Tenser Karen Arnold, Dissertation Chair ABSTRACT Taking a gap year between high school and college has become more common in the United States in recent years, yet little research attempts to describe or analyze the experience of the students who arrive on college campuses after such a year out. This qualitative study followed 12 first-year students attending highly-selective private institutions in the northeastern U.S. as they experienced the transitions from high school to gap year to college. With varying levels of family support and high levels of personal motivation, the students participated in a wide range of gap-year endeavors. The findings indicate that students were heavily influenced by their encounters during the gap year, leading to strong evidence of self-authorship among the participants, which in turn shaped the way students pursued their goals when they arrived at college.

  • INTERROGATING EARLY SCHOOL LEAVING, YOUTH UNEMPLOYMENT and NEETS Understanding Local Contexts in Two English Regions
    INTERROGATING EARLY SCHOOL LEAVING, YOUTH UNEMPLOYMENT AND NEETS Understanding local contexts in two English regions Louise Ryan* & Magdolna Lo´´rinc* Abstract: In England, early school leaving is not part of the official policy discourse; the focus instead is on reducing youth unemployment and the number of young people not in education, employment or training (NEET). The overall aim of this paper is to examine the key issues at stake in the changing policy landscape relating to education and youth unemployment in England, and to explore the chal- lenges facing young people in the context of localised socio-economic factors. Drawing on the aca- demic literature, official statistics and qualitative data from our fieldwork in two English regions, we explore the differences between the concepts of ESL, NEETs and youth unemployment and interro- gate the efficacy of these terms to capture vulnerability patterns in youth transitions. In addition, the paper argues that educational policies and outcomes need to be understood in relation to economic opportunity structures not just nationally but also at regional levels. Our data suggests that although educational attainment has a positive impact on labour market outcomes, it is unlikely that education policy initiatives alone will solve the issue of large-scale youth unemployment.
