Swedish term
Lärande i Arbetslivet
Swedish to English
Social Sciences
Education / Pedagogy
I could translate "Lärande i Arbetslivet" as "Learning in Working Life," but I'm wondering if there isn't a standard term used by Swedish universities for this?
Perhaps "Internship" ?
Perhaps "Internship" ?

Simply stick to a good dictionary, eg, Collins: vocational is 1. of or relating to a vocation or vocations. 2. of or relating to applied educational courses concerned with skills needed for an occupation, trade or profession.

work-placement, apprenticeship, alternating training
It all depends on the type of training being referred to.
Work-placement is just an alternative for 'internship', apprenticeship if it is training offered by a company with a possible contract at the end and 'alternating training if it is a university course with some regular work experience in a company as an employee of the company
