Introduction
The Alpine Macroregion, located in the centre of Europe, is among the richest, most dynamic, innovative
and competitive areas in many respects.
EUSALP – EU STRATEGY FOR THE ALPINE REGION is one of the four European Macroregional strategies
and aims at fostering transnational collaboration among the Alpine States by joining human passions,
natural resources and economic assets, linking cities, plains, valleys and mountains to find solutions to
common challenges that can be solved better together.
EUSALP has nine thematic Action Groups. The focus of AG3 is to improve the adequacy of the labour
market and of the education and training systems in order to foster increased employment levels,
especially in strategic sectors.
The analysis developed by INAPP and published in February 2019 in the framework of the Interreg
Alpine Space project "Alp Gov I", "Dual Systems in the Regions of the Alpine Space", highlights the
complexity and heterogeneity of the dual training models of the seven EUSALP countries . The profound
differences should be brought together in order to identify possible forms and solutions.
Dual training system is a model of professional training that aims at fostering young employability,
promoting the match between supply and demand and countering early school leaving. Dual training
systems are, in general, characterised by a learning process which develops in a workplace as well as in
an educational or training institution. At the end of this process the apprentice/intern gains a
qualification or a recognised certificate. The dual training system is generally based on a formal
agreement between the enterprise and the apprentice/intern or between the enterprise and the
educational institution.
This CWA aims at bringing the level of discussion and dialogue on dual training to a higher level. A
constructive and structured debate has been held within the Workshop and all stakeholders belonging to
the European countries part of EUSALP had the opportunity to give their contribution, defining a shared
and effective strategy for the development of apprenticeship/traineeship.
Thus, the development of a CWA based on the consensus of the parties is the most suitable tool to provide
policymakers and all interested stakeholders with a guide, a reference document which can act as a
catalyst for further documents, proposals and future European projects.
This CWA presents recommendations not requirements and its character is voluntary.

1 INAPP (Istituto Nazionale per l’Analisi delle Politiche Pubbliche) is an Italian public research organisation, whose main goal is the analysis,
monitoring and evaluation of the labour policies and services, education and training and of all the social policies with a direct impact over the
labour market.

A CWA (Cen Workshop Agreement) is an agreement developed and approved in a CEN Workshop; the latter is open to the direct participation
of anyone with an interest in the development of the agreement. There is no geographical limit on participation; hence, participants may be from
outside Europe. A CWA does not have the status of a European standard. It involves no obligation at national level.
