| Abstract: | This article is an overview of the employment and training problems among young school leavers in Nigeria and the role which the apprenticeship system can play in alleviating the problems. It is observed that educational expansion has no provision for employment and training opportunities for the many school leavers. Noting the importance of apprenticeship training, the paper examines the operation and employment potential of the two modes of apprenticeship training: formal and informal sector apprenticeship training. Finally, it is suggested that the government and parents should accord due recognition to apprenticeship training in the attempt to solve the employment and training problems of young school leavers. |
