This collocation may seem pretty obvious, but I am not really sure if the correct collocation in English would be professional initiation or professional training. It refers to some activities, like carpentry, dressmaking, bakery, which are offered by an institute to some teenagers who live in a very poor area.

: Sorry, I had a wrong interpretation about Iniciação Profissional. I thought it would be something like "start working".
Therefore, I presume that "Apprentinship" would be correct http://www.senaiac.org.br/2013-08-07-14-45-47/2013-08-07-15-...
