description: The authors of this book work from the premise that some plain talk is needed about the subject of evaluation in vocational education and training. After providing substantive background on the conceptual issues, the book focuses on the why and how of evaluation before presenting and judging the results of available evaluations. The discussion takes in the use and abuse of available evaluation results in policy-making and the implications for evaluation of recent trends and issues in VET such as decentralization, the declining role for governments, the shift towards work-based learning and the continued concern for meeting equity concerns through vocational education and training.
