School to work transitions: A study of school-industry partnerships in small and medium enterprises in SouthEast Queensland

由于学校、工作和社会的变化，当代从学校到工作的过渡是困难的。黄金海岸地区代表了一个独特的地区，那里有高于全国和州平均水平的培训完成。该项目调查该区域从学校到工作的培训形式，以确定最佳做法的要素，并向包括青年、雇主和学校在内的主要利益攸关方提出效益和成本建议。该项目的重要性在于它记录了主要的工业和学校伙伴关系，这些伙伴关系在认知、社会和经济方面有利于青年和就业的长期可持续性。

The transition from school to work in contemporary times is difficult due to changes in school, work and society. The Gold Coast region represents a unique region where there are above national and state average completions of traineeships. This project investigates the forms of school-to-work traineeships in the region in order to identify elements of best practice, and to propose benefits and costs to key stakeholders including youth, employers and schools. The project's significance lies in its documentation of key industry and school partnerships in terms of cognitive, social and economic benefits for the long-term sustainability of youth and employment.
