Standing at the crossroads of education and the labour market, apprenticeships offer opportunities for agile policy responses to dynamically changing skills and qualification needs. While the position of apprenticeships is changing to meet such needs, the results do not always match policy intentions.

This collection of papers, drafted by members of Cedefop’s Community of apprenticeship experts, helps navigate common challenges and identify the conditions for the successful introduction or repositioning of apprenticeships in education and training systems.
