The problem of forming and normative support of social partnership in vocational training of service sector specialists in Germany and Austria has been studied in the article. Federal and state laws in vocational education in these countries have been analyzed. The key aspects of interaction between educational units in order to organize collaboration at the ministerial, regional, local and international levels have been considered. Based on the results of the study undertaken, it has been found out that the dual system of primary vocational training of specialists in vocational education in Germany and Austria is continuing and consists of two stages, namely: 1) theoretical training in vocational schools and practical training at enterprises; 2) further vocational education/further research-based vocational education. The author has characterized vocational secondary schools: part-time vocational schools that comprise dual training system and full-time vocational schools: specialized vocational schools, advanced vocational schools and vocational gymnasia. It has been found out that technical universities and higher vocational education institutions training service sector specialists belong to higher education system, too. It has been highlighted that the system of social partnership in vocational education in Ukraine is being dramatically developed and significantly reformed. Therefore, study, generalization and analysis of European experience in organizing social partnership in vocational training of specialists, particularly in service sector, is becoming rather relevant. Based on the analysis of legislative documents on vocational education in Germany and Austria, it has been concluded that social partnership in education may be considered as a reliable and approved social mechanism that stipulates for economic stability and development, establishment of competitive, flexible and dynamic education system in each country; the mentioned problem in Ukraine requires the need for complex development of social partnership system as an interdisciplinary problem related to social, cultural, political and economic factors of social development to be taken into consideration; sustainable development of researches on the problem of theory and methodology of vocational education and implementation of its results in practice to be ensured; German and Austrian experience in organizing vocational training in the dual education system that presupposes the combination of proportional correlation between vocational theoretical and practical components to be studied. Rather perspective for further researches is the study of foreign experience in developing and implementing vocational education standards that is the field of social partnership functioning.
