Vocational education and training are core principles of the Swiss educational system. They play a major role in ensuring adequate education and job preparation for young people. Switzerland has received a lot of international interest, including from the Obama Admnistration, in its apprenticeship model. At this event, major Swiss Companies will share their efforts in this area in the US, providing an alternative route for young professionals.
