Abstract	To meet the demand for workers with high-tech skills and an understanding of international business, America's schools have initiated school-to-work and international education programs. This study described the internationalization process of two banking and finance school-to-work programs, a German youth apprenticeship and an American career academy program. Qualitative case design was used to provide detailed descriptions of the internationalization phenomena, content and methodology, taking place in these bounded programs. Recommendations include conducting longitudinal research to more fully understand the phenomena studied. An extension of this would be research in additional countries. Research on curriculum internationalization may lead to a better mix between infusion and inclusion methods, resulting in optimal learning by students. Research on international concepts in teacher educator programs may shed light on the need for professional development. (Author).
