1 Dual training Formation en alternance Belgium (FR) 1 TARGET GROUP Q7. What is the target group of this scheme? YOUNG PEOPLE IN INITIAL VOCATIONAL EDUCATION AND TRAINING (15-16 YEAR-OLDS) YOUNG ADULTS IN EDUCATION AND TRAINING (ABOVE 16 YEAR-OLDS) UNEMPLOYED (PLEASE SPECIFY IN THE DESCRIPTION) In compliance with the law on compulsory education, to access formation en alternance, the candidate has to be aged at least 15 years and have completed at least the first 2 years of secondary education. To conclude a "contrat d'alternance", the candidate learner must not have reached the age of 25 years. He can continue his training at most until the end of the calendar year in which he reaches the age of 26. L'enseignement en alternance aimed at the same options, the same objectives in terms of competences and the same qualifications that full-time education, referred to as enseignement en alternance article 49 (in reference to Decree of 24 July 1997 defining the priority missions of basic education and secondary education and organising the structures to achieve them) has slightly different access conditions. Q8. What is the age of learners? BETWEEN 15 AND 18 BETWEEN 18 AND 24 ABOVE 24 This scheme attracts potential early leavers or learners who accumulated school failure, the majority of learners are aged OVERVIEW OF THE SCHEME
2 Q9. Is the scheme included in the ISCED 2011 mapping? YES NO Q10. Is the scheme part of the VET system? YES, IT IS THE MAIN ROUTE IN THE VET SYSTEM YES, BUT IT IS CONSIDERED A SECOND- CHANCE ROUTE NO, IT IS AN ALTERNATIVE PATHWAY OUTSIDE OF FORMAL VET It is usually when learners failed all school options (i.e. general education, technical education, school based VET). However, the reform being implemented from September 2015 aims to encourage young people to make this choice in a positive way, rather than being a second-chance route in case of a difficult educational path. For this, harmonisation and simplification of the system(s) were needed. Q11. When was the scheme introduced? LONG HISTORY (BEFORE 2000) RECENTLY INTRODUCED (BETWEEN ) NEW PATHWAY (AFTER 2012) The Formation en alternance was introduced in 1985 at the time of the extension of compulsory education from age 15 to 18, with the implicit purpose of providing education to all young people who were at risk of early leaving. Q12. How did the apprenticeship scheme originate?
3 TRADITIONAL CRAFTSMANSHIP (MASTER-APPRENTICE RELATION) TO PREPARE APPRENTICES FOR THE OCCUPATION SCHOOL-BASED VET TRACK BY INCLUDING MORE WORK-BASED LEARNING TO SUPPLY SKILLED WORKFORCE TO MATCH LABOUR MARKET NEEDS PROGRAMMES FOR THE UNEMPLOYED (ACTIVE LABOUR MARKET MEASURES) TO FACILITATE INTEGRATION ON THE LABOUR MARKET Q13. What are the major sources of financing of the in-company training part of the apprenticeship scheme? BY COMPANIES HOSTING APPRENTICES BY EMPLOYERS THROUGH SECTORAL FUNDS BY THE STATE FROM THE EDUCATION BUDGET BY THE STATE FROM THE LABOUR / SOCIAL SECURITY BUDGET BY EU FUNDING CEFAs are part of the formal educational system and are therefore publicly financed. IFAPME/SFPME centres are financed by public educational authorities up to 75%. The rest of their budget is linked to enrolment fees. Q14. Are there any financial incentives for companies that offer apprenticeship places?
4 YES, SUBSIDIES YES, TAX DEDUCTIONS YES, INCENTIVES NO FINANCIAL INCENTIVES Financial incentives are currently being redesigned. Employers taking on apprentices may benefit from the reduction in social security contributions as well as incentives for tutorial training programme and the right of paid educational leave. Furthermore, the internship bonus (stage bonus; also called bonus Tutorat ) provides for a premium for each employer who trains a youngster or employs him within the framework of a training or employment contract. The bonus amounts to the bonus amounts to 500 for the 1st and 2nd year and 750 for the 3rd year (paid at the end of each training year completed, successful or not). Moreover, employers may also benefit from a tax benefit: 40% of the learning compensations paid to the youngster may be considered as work-related expenses. (ReferNet, Apprenticeship-type schemes, Belgium 2014). Q15. Is the scheme temporary, meaning that it is financed for a limited period of time? YES NO Q16. How many learners are enrolled in this scheme? For the school year 2013/2014, there were 9,085 students enrolled in a CEFA. In 2011, 5,323 persons were in a formation en alternance organised by IFAPME, and 999 by SFPME.
