Abstract	The past, present, and future of vocational education and training (VET) in Belgium were examined. The examination focused on the following topics: Belgium's education system; VET for young people; continuing vocational training; financing of continuing VET; qualitative aspects of VET; training of trainers; and trends and prospects. The following were among the key findings: (1) although continuing training in Belgium is undoubtedly on the increase, participation by adults remains below the European mean and major inequalities exist from the standpoint of access; (2) training schemes organized and financed by employers chiefly benefit better qualified workers; (3) guidance and training are viewed as interrelated, with the aim being to encourage people to take a proactive attitude toward adapting their skills during their working lives so that they can progress or find new positions; (4) Belgium has 12,000 agencies working in the 8 main fields of training and offering 14,000 specific training schemes; (5) regulation of training is increasing; and (6) developing an evaluation culture for VET will require ensuring that available data are comparable and that all programs and measures implemented have clearly stated objectives. (Thirteen figures/tables are included. A list of acronyms and abbreviations and addresses of 13 useful organizations are appended.) (MN)
