 How and in what measure can collective bargaining begin to deal with and regulate vocational training?  The growing relationship between training and collective contracting justify the emphasis on the importance with which training is developed in the area of social actor's autonomy.  It can be said that there exists a popular approach which proclaims the essential role of training in the improvement of the quality and quantity of employment.  However, two points need to be made clear: the relevance of vocational training to the creation of job positions, and the perception that in the current employment crisis, weighty reasons must be wielded in order to introduce training in collective bargaining.  The authors analyze the importance that training has taken on through numerous collective agreements reached in different countries of Europe and America.  A few entire texts of recently reached frame agreements, agreements within industry or activity branches and enterprise agreements have been transcribed for the benefit of readers.  In summary, the comparative analysis of a central issue to the current world of labour is undertaken through systematic research.
