Review Quotes: "I enthusiastically endorse Hoffman's final suggestion to the reader: 'Buy a plane ticket to one of the strong VET countries, talk to employers, see young people at work, and decide for yourself whether the system performs as described here.' Before you travel, I whole-heartedly recommend that you read this book." -- Roland Osterlund, Center on International Education Benchmarking
