Meeting the diversity challenge
The civil service, the promised land of diversity, can achieve integration through apprenticeships, a little known route to excellence. How can we roll out the scheme run by the Université d’Evry Val d’Essonne as a means of helping those previously relegated to the bottom of the pile to reach the top? |

| Résumé : |
Drawing on ten years experience, this research shows that apprenticeships (two or three years post baccalaureate) are a means of opening up the middle management positions that play such a key part in public administration, mainly to women and ethnic minorities, two groups which are currently under represented. Yet the first step on the road to excellence that is the apprenticeship is signing an apprenticeship contract. This is the first major difficulty that the future student must overcome to get on a sandwich course, with barriers put in their way by elected representatives, senior managers and red tape. This selective and inequitable ordeal, often amounts to young people from ethnic minorities or low income areas being discriminated against on two or even three counts. Apprenticeships are a path to success but do not offer all young people an equal chance whether they are from low income areas or elsewhere. The selection methods fall short of offering equal opportunities in accordance with republican values. Although not a perfect solution, the system introduced at Evry goes some way towards smoothing out difficulties and re-establishing equal opportunities through a compulsory’induction and initiation’ course |
