German term
Berufsmittelschule
German to English
Social Sciences
Education / Pedagogy
This is from a translation from Swiss German to English about training centres offering vocational training for young people. The text distinguishes between "Berufsfachschule" and "Berufsmittelschule". I put "technical college" for the former but am not sure what the difference is between the two terms. The terms occur as bullet items in a PPT presentation so I cannot give much more context. Basically, trainees attend one of these two institutions over a four-year period, which also involves work placements.

Comment: "Thanks, I left "Berufsmittelschule" in German and added the translation in brackets. Thanks also to Woodstock for the useful link."
