Apprenticeship models are the policies and systems under which apprenticeships and traineeships are implemented and delivered. Apprenticeship models can differ from country to country, and state to state. They can be part of secondary education such as the German and Swiss dual-track system and Australia’s VET (vocational education and training) in Schools, or part of the post-secondary education system.
