Vocational work experience in the hospitality industry: characteristics and strategies

Abstract

What is the nature of work experience and how can it be facilitated effectively? In Europe, success (and failure) seems to depend on willingness, understanding and co‐operation. Key strategies include an emphasis on communication and integration, a legal recognition of the importance of training and agreement on the purpose of work experience.
