In combined school and work-based programmes, instruction is shared between school and the workplace, although instruction may take place primarily in the workplace. Programmes are classified as combined school and work-based if less than 75 per cent of the curriculum is presented in the school environment or through distance education. Programmes that are more than 90 per cent work-based are excluded. Work-study programmes are combinations of work and education in which periods of both form part of an integrated, formal education or training activity. Examples of such programmes include the ‘dual system’ in Germany; ‘apprentissage’ or ‘formation en alternance’ in France and Belgium; internship or co-operative education in Canada; apprenticeship in Ireland; and “youth training” in the United Kingdom.
