Abstract	This study compares vocational education programs in seven countries in order to evaluate the different elements of a comprehensive approach to education for work that reaches beyond isolated skill training. Despite their divergence in scope and intention, a common feature of these programs is that they endorse the approach of lifelong vocational development. The study's hypothesis is that effective education for work has to be based on a comprehensive approach to a meaningful articulation of these different specifications of learning experiences. Following a synthesis by Gert Loose, the report contains the following chapters: "Nonformal Vocational Training in Venezuela" (Fuenzalida et al.); "Hibernia School: Analysis of an Integrated Curriculum Embracing Vocational Development" (Heyder, Schneider); "Vocational Development through the Education Programme of the Sarvodaya Shramadana Movement in Sri Lanka" (Perera); "Analysis of School and Out-of-School Education for Vocational Development in the Perspective of Lifelong Education in Poland" (Nowacki); "In-School and Out-of-School Curricula for Vocational Development in Tanzania" (Athumani); "Using Career Guidance to Support Career Development: The Career Planning Support System (CPSS) as an Illustrative Innovation" (Miller, Campbell); and "Learning by Participation: A Renewal Project in the Dutch Education System" (van Donk). Each case study is preceded by a description of its profile, aspects of cross-national transferability, and distinctive features by Loose. Most chapters include tables, figures, and a bibliography.
