Book excerpt: "School to work pathways and transitions are key developmental processes in young adulthood. In this book, we examine social, cultural, familial, contextual, and personal factors that shape these processes. Internationally renowned scholars in the fields of developmental psychology, applied psychology, counselling, and sociology have contributed chapters focusing on theory, research and application related to school to work (STW) and educational transitions.
