Increasing international competition has put improvements in vocational training at the top of many nations’ political agendas. This important book explores the economic analysis of training and relates it to the differing systems found in Western Europe and the United States.

‘. . . a major strength of the book is its breadth of coverage. . . this is an interesting book, containing a wealth of information, which would serve as a useful introduction to the area for students, academics and practitioners. . .’
