Abstract：
Initial vocational training (VT) in high school consists of short-term programs leading to employment in a skilled trade. To better align training with employment opportunities and to encourage students to stay in the programs until they graduate, most programs include traineeship. Since traineeships involve acquiring skills directly on the job, they require greater involvement of supervisors to guide the trainees. Given the importance of on-the-job guidance in achieving traineeship objectives, this study examines the potential influence of three dimensions of guidance provided by traineeship supervisors -planning, support, and training- on students\' job perception (i.e., occupational image) and traineeship satisfaction. Overall, the results provide mixed results, partially supporting the mediation hypothesis suggested by the results of previous studies. Indeed, the results reveal that the quality of the training offered by the supervisor affects subsequent students\' satisfaction with traineeship experience. Training has an indirect effect on satisfaction via the occupational image held by students. However, the expected indirect links between the other two dimensions of supervisor guidance -degree of planning and support perceived by the student- and the students\' image of their chosen occupation could not be confirmed. The results support the importance of providing quality on-the-job training to students during their studies.
摘要：
高中的初始职业培训（VT）包括短期计划，从而导致在技术贸易中就业。为了更好地调整培训与就业机会，并鼓励学生留在课程中，直到他们毕业，大多数计划包括实习。由于培训涉及直接在工作中获得技能，他们需要更多的主管参与来指导受训者。鉴于在职指导对实现实习目标的重要性，本研究考察了培训主管提供的三个维度指导的潜在影响-计划，支持,和培训-对学生的工作感知(即，职业形象)和实习满意度。总的来说,结果提供了混合的结果，部分支持以前研究结果提出的调解假设。的确,结果表明，主管提供的培训质量会影响后续学生对实习经验的满意度。培训通过学生的职业形象间接影响满意度。然而,主管指导的其他两个维度——学生认为的计划和支持程度——与学生选择的职业形象之间的预期间接联系无法得到证实。结果支持在学习期间为学生提供高质量的在职培训的重要性。
