Abstract

This chapter describes the main levers to develop an efficient vocational training offer in the context of a strategic displayed willingness for continuous improvement and excellence. The challenge, for the parties (learners included) over their life course, is to make clear of: first, the issues of training (repository of skills with challenging situations); second, the training requirement specifications dealing with the pedagogical culture of the trainers, the design of the Formative Work Situation and the responsibilities of actors helped by their inventive use of innovative tools (brown paper mapping) for the guidance; third, the chosen multi-level organization to monitor and ensure compliance thanks to convenient processes for quality. Despite the perceived complexity and difficulty of Work Integrated Learning, the choice of alternation is a key element to target excellence. Indeed, the integrated constraint of training for and through the workplace enhances the relationship between parties, their involvement and active attitude while sharing outcomes, benefits and cost.
