Description
Summary:An overview of research into the youth labour market, carried out in 1994 by IES, on behalf of SOLOTEC, the South London Training & Enterprise Council. The aim is to make more public the findings of the research, which, though based in south London, has a broader application relating to the provision of vocational training for young people. In particular, it aims to examine the research findings relating to the effectiveness of training credits (available as a pilot from 1991-1995) in meeting the training needs of young people and employers. Finally, goes beyond the remit of the research to outline and explain measures taken by SOLOTEC to meet the report′s recommendation.
