The method used in this research was a mixed method based on interviews, data analysis, and the implementation of a questionnaire.

The participants of the study consisted of all apprentices of the 18-month plan, all the trainers, managers and experts in charge and also all the employers who recruited the apprentices. As regards the quantitative part, the sampling methods were ‘statistical sampling’ and ‘stratified random sampling’ and as for the qualitative phase ‘purposive sampling’ was practiced. The results of the study showed that: (a) the average degree of weakness and inefficiency of the management criteria accounted for 3.64 out of 5 (undesirable), the competence of the trainers 3.39 (undesirable), equipment and training facilities 3.47 (undesirable), the educational standards 3.38 (undesirable), and the harmony of training with market needs 3.87 ( highly undesirable).
