Context influence on the vocational training knowledge of secondary school pupils

Abstract

ABSTRACT
This paper analyzes the knowledge that students who are in the last year of compulsory secondary education, living in different cities of Asturias, have about several vocational training courses. The results obtained permit us to conclude that pupils do not have enough information. We considered that this situation would be able to change if both school centres and local government develop a proposal of vocational guidance and training together.
