dc.description.abstractWorkplace-based learning must be part of a broader youth employment strategy which will address demand-side constraints. The primary conduits for workplace-based learning in Africa are: (1) technical and vocational education (TVET) provided or regulated by national governments, (2) informal or traditional apprenticeships, and (3) donor-funded skills development programmes that have a component of on-the-job training. This paper examines the current conditions of youth employment and underemployment in terms of workplace-based learning in Africa and presents options for programme improvement.en
