Dutch term or phrase: beroepspraktijkvorming
Does anyone have a good translation into English for this? I don't have a lot of context. It is on a marks list as a subject called "beroepspraktijkvorming 1" and "beroepspraktijkvorming 2".

practical vocational training
Explanation:
I would word it in this way. It relates to the practical element of vocational training. So not just what students learn in the classroom, but that part of their training which puts their knowledge into practice. For instance classroom teaching on bricklaying might involve instruction on what kinds of mortar are used for different types of construction. The practical training would be for example building an external wall, with all the knowledge gained in the classroom being put in practicing building walls.
