title: Assessing release courses in vocational training.
abstract: A series of visits to selected vocational training schemes revealed a wide variation in attendance by trainees, content of release courses, use of teaching methods, and participation in planning by trainees. The principal criticism made by ex-trainees was the absence of enough teaching on practice management.I suggest that it is important to clarify as soon as possible the division of teaching responsibilities between training practices and release courses.
