The first two chapters contain general information and statistics on the population and employment in Greece and the economy and labor force. Chapter 3 is an overview of scholastic education and vocational training, including information on the various types of postcompulsory education, such as the general lykeion, technical and vocational schools, technical and vocational lykeions, integrated comprehensive lykeions, the Greek Naval Lykeions for Officer Cadets, middle technical and vocational nursing schools, and apprenticeships; career planning; and nonuniversity higher technical and vocational education. Chapter 4 reports on further education, especially that oriented toward the job market. Chapters 5, 6, and 7 discuss the historical development of the educational system, the authority structure of the system, and the financial structure of the educational system. The final chapter suggests future trends in vocational education in Greece. Statistical data are reported in the appendix, and a list of abbreviations, notes, and a 39-item bibliography are included.
