Abstract
Academization is a phenomenon which plays an increasing role in the training programmes for the semi-professions. In Denmark academization has been researched from a predominantly student perspective, as an analysis of how abstract forms of knowledge dominate competencies for care and nursing among
female students. This article examines academization as a discursive phenomenon. It shows how academization has been produced through historical
developments of the educational policies surrounding the semiprofessional
schools. Furthermore, the article discusses what consequences academization
may have as a knowledge/power structure for the production and repression of professional identities.
