Prof. Dr. Franz Kaiser & Dr. Philipp Struck Increased educational aspirations and consequences for the vocational education system in German Prof. Dr. Franz Kaiser & Dr. Philipp Struck The 5th International Conference on Employer Engagement and Training London - 05.07.2018 Apprenticeships and VET pathways International comparisons 13.11.2018 UNIVERSITÄT ROSTOCK | Philosophische Fakultät

Content Introduction Project context and Methodology Analysis Results German school system German vocational education system German vocational orientation system Project context and Methodology Analysis Results Conclusion Discussion 13.11.2018 UNIVERSITÄT ROSTOCK | Philosophische Fakultät

Introduction: German school system Three divisions: lower secondary school -> vocational education middle school -> vocational education high school -> academic education (& vocational education) 13.11.2018 UNIVERSITÄT ROSTOCK | Philosophische Fakultät

Introduction: German vocational education system Two main types: school-based VET (200.000), Dual System (500.000) learning places in DS: enterprise and vocational school Duration: 2 – 3.5 years About 330 different kinds of vocational occupations No school leaving certificate as a formal requirement New contracts for a vocational education in 2016: High school degree - 28,7% Middle school degree - 42,8% Lower secondary school degree - 25,3% Without a degree - 3,1% (BIBB, 2018, S. 132) 13.11.2018 UNIVERSITÄT ROSTOCK | Philosophische Fakultät

Trends in the last decades in German VET system Decline in the number of in-company training places high number of unplaced applicants at the same time many vacancies for apprentices (branch specific) increasing number of apprentices with university entrance qualification Broadening the qualification profiles of the training occupations / Reduction in the number of training occupations Trend towards broader and more demanding VET courses, with continued "simpler" two-year training occupations 13.11.2018 UNIVERSITÄT ROSTOCK | Philosophische Fakultät

Introduction: German vocational orientation system Company visits Practice days in an enterprise / practical training Career consultation Profession and Career exploration Potential analysis Offers are: Begins in the seventh class and continues until the school leaving 13.11.2018 UNIVERSITÄT ROSTOCK | Philosophische Fakultät

The Situation: Declining attractiveness of dual vocational training or increasing educational aspiration? Current studies (e.g. Shell 2015 and Schnitzler & Granato 2016) clarify increased educational aspirations Many kinds of schools to achieve the high school degree after the middle school; the schools are successful in promoting their further education options (school to school cooperation is allowed in Germany) “To make VET the first choice” as a political goal of the VET skills week in Brussels 2017 by the EU Commission © EU Commission 13.11.2018 UNIVERSITÄT ROSTOCK | Philosophische Fakultät

Project: Evaluation of vocational orientation initiatives Evaluation of the federal governments program to promote vocational orientation in inter-company and comparable vocational training centers „Berufsorientierungsprogramm“ in grade 7 and 8: Potential analysis & Profession and Career exploration 2013 – 2017 Research consortium of INTERVAL GmbH, Leibniz Universität Hannover and qualiNETZ Observations during the program, quantitative and qualitative surveys of young participants and surveys at different levels of the groups of people involved (e.g. parents, teachers and educators) © BMBF © BMBF 13.11.2018 UNIVERSITÄT ROSTOCK | Philosophische Fakultät

Methodology of the sub-project (Struck 2017) Methods: Qualitative study with interview guide Data Set: 174 pupils from ten different locations in Germany from secondary school (except high school) beginning in grade 7 Longitudinal section with 4 measurements 13.11.2018 UNIVERSITÄT ROSTOCK | Philosophische Fakultät

Results (Struck 2017) 93 pupils achieved the middle school degree 33 chose a vocational training 53 try to pass the high school degree; 31 female and 22 male The pupils from the middle school made two years before school leaving the decision to prefer a high school attendance instead of a vocational education (in grade 8: 25 of 53; in grade 9: 41 of 53) No applications send; although passing different kinds of vocational orientations 13.11.2018 UNIVERSITÄT ROSTOCK | Philosophische Fakultät

Results – Arguments of the youth (Struck 2017) “It was like, that I did not feel myself ready for the world of work yet.” (male, 16; Original-Speech: „Es war so, dass ich mich für die Arbeitswelt noch nicht bereit gefühlt habe.“) “My mother did not think it was okay for me to work at 16. She thought it was too early, I should rather try an apprenticeship at 18.” (female, 16; Original-Speech: „Meine Mutter fand es noch nicht so okay, dass ich mit 16 arbeiten gehe. Sie fand es zu früh, ich soll lieber mit 18 eine Ausbildung versuchen.“) “Because I did not know what else to do. You can say it was a stopgap. My certificate was good enough to continue, and now I have three more years to think about it.” (female, 17; Original-Speech: „Weil ich nicht wusste, was ich sonst machen sollte. Man kann sagen, es war eine Notlösung. Mein Zeugnis war gut genug, um weiter zu machen, und jetzt habe ich noch drei Jahre länger Zeit zu überlegen.“) 13.11.2018 UNIVERSITÄT ROSTOCK | Philosophische Fakultät

Results They feel themselves as “too young” or “not ready” to start a vocational education For others the secondary school is also a stopgap; some chose the scholar pathway postponement of the decision, they try to extend their career choice process, because of beginning uncertain -> Moratorium is needed Also some parents prefer a secondary school instead of a vocational education 13.11.2018 UNIVERSITÄT ROSTOCK | Philosophische Fakultät

Conclusion A vocational education seems to be less attractive It cannot exclude that people believe: The entrance into a vocational training completes or even stops the educational advancement. Maybe the German term of “Ausbildung” and “ausgebildet sein” transports between the lines, to be finished with learning and so with personal development, perhaps at a dead-end. Certain vocational training places remain vacant, especially in hotel and tourism and the handcraft sector The apprentices become older when they start their vocational training (at the end of their high school education, which they could have already started with their middle school certificate) 13.11.2018 UNIVERSITÄT ROSTOCK | Philosophische Fakultät

Conclusion Talks for the career guidance: Raising awareness of the advantages and disadvantages of high schools (e.g. dropout rates, increased academic achievement level) In addition, a vocational training isn’t a dead-end qualification it enables additional promotion and further education options, so that a high school diploma can still be achieved To make the advantages and possibilities of a vocational education more clear to the young adults and to focus more individually on their motives and interests. -> To prevent confusion and ignorance of vocational education pathways Talks for the employers: Promoting the advantages of vocational education: “You can get money during the apprenticeship and also a lot of further education options!” “You learn earlier what’s really needed in the world of work and these intensify your successful career.” To configure vocational education more attractive through new approaches to participation and emancipation, e.g. peer education 13.11.2018 UNIVERSITÄT ROSTOCK | Philosophische Fakultät

Discussion What are your experiences (in your countries) why young adults are not moving into vocational education? How could we make vocational education more attractive your young school-leavers? What can be the task for the employers? Why parents, society and environment think it is better to continue school instead of starting a vocational career? Are there not enough role-models? (Like young adults starting a vocational education after middle school degree and explaining their situation as positive) 13.11.2018 UNIVERSITÄT ROSTOCK | Philosophische Fakultät
