Abstract | The purpose of the current study is to examine, in retrospect, trainees' perceptions of the reasons some of their peers dropped out of the vocational education at the Industrial Institute-Shuwaikh (IIS), Kuwait. Using the descriptive-analytical method, a reliable questionnaire was developed to achieve this purpose. Results show that: (a) the trainees perceive that institutional influences, particularly family-related reasons, are the most common reasons for their peers to drop out; (b) only the father's educational level and family income are found to significantly affect, though in a small proportion, the trainees' perceptions, though not in all statements. Based on the obtained results, relevant recommendations are included. (As Provided). |
