Abstract
One of the least publicised but very significant changes in Irish workplaces over the past
decade involves young people. Thousands of teenagers now spend one or two weeks on
work experience placements as part of their formal education. In schools up and down
the country, programme co-ordinators, teachers, principals, parents and students speak
enthusiastically about placements as powerful occasions of learning. For some they are
also major milestones on the road to career choice.
