In-company education and training

Japanese: 企業内教育･訓練 - きぎょうないきょういくくんれん

Looking at the history of in-company education and training in modern Japan, the apprenticeship system existed in the Meiji period, and in the mid-Meiji period, some companies also established a probationary worker system. From the Taisho and early Showa periods through to wartime, advanced companies fully established in-company training systems for skilled workers, which developed from the trainee system. These included the traditional apprenticeship system, what might be called in-company industrial schools, and in-company engineering schools for training foremen. During World War II, these were renamed to youth schools and the like. After the war, in-company education and training became better organized and systematized in both name and reality, and we will discuss this period below.

近代日本の企業内教育･訓練の歴史をみると，明治期には徒弟制度があり，明治の半ばには一部企業に見習工制度も設けられた。大正･昭和初期から戦中には，養成工制度が発展した技能工の企業内養成制度が，先進企業で本格的に設けられた。これには，伝統的な徒弟制度，企業内工業学校と呼ぶべきもの，職工長クラスを養成する企業内技手学校と呼ばれるものなどがあった。第2次大戦中は，これらが青年学校などと名称を変えている。戦後は名実ともに企業内教育･訓練が整備･体系化されてくるが，以下，この時期について述べる。
