This article aims to analyze vocational education and training in Europe and to model mechanisms of educational and vocational choice. First, we expose the differences between VET approaches in Europe. Secondly, a sociological analysis is provided. When VET systems were first created, aspects such as work culture or diverging political concerns led to different responses in the various countries. Thirdly, we present a psychological approach of the educational and vocational choice which draws on a process where profession images are compared with one's own self-image. Finally, we present an integrated explanatory model of the vocational choice, based on sociological and psychological dimensions. In conclusion, we propose several plans of action in order to support and inform students regarding educational choice and to improve valorization of the VET track.
本文旨在分析欧洲的职业教育培训,并构建教育与职业选择机制的模型。首先,我们揭示欧洲职业教育与培训方法之间的差异。其次,进行社会学分析。职业教育与培训体系最初创建时,工作文化或不同的政治关切等因素导致各国产生了不同的应对方式。第三,我们提出一种教育与职业选择的心理学方法,该方法借鉴了一个将职业形象与个人自我形象进行比较的过程。最后,我们基于社会学和心理学维度,提出一个职业选择的综合解释模型。总之,我们提出了几项行动计划,以支持学生并为其提供有关教育选择的信息,并提高职业教育与培训路径的价值。
