Abstract

The article
discusses the importance of career guidance and career planning and emphasizes
the importance of professional orientation as a main mechanism in career
planning.



The article
gives an overview of the project “The school as a place of learning a profession”
implemented within the framework of Vocational Training and Partnership in the
South Caucasus
Bildungswerk der Wirtschaft Mecklenburg Vorpommern e.V. funded by the German Federal Ministry of
Education and Research (BMZ).
Within
the scope of the project four private schools were selected in Georgia.
Secondary students from these schools visited various companies in Georgia.



Professional orientation and career planning
consist of services that help students and beneficiaries successfully identify
their strengths and weaknesses, interest areas and needs and go through externship
in relevant areas.



The author
of the article emphasizes the importance of the project “The school as a place
of learning a profession” for the development of self-esteem, personal formation
and informed career choice in young people. The project aims at implementing
and developing career guidance in a pilot region. It will facilitate
approximation and harmonization of Georgian vocational education to the
European system. 



As the results of the survey have shown, it
is important to prepare students prior to their visits to companies, to
increase their awareness on the features and characteristics of the profiling
enterprise and give them information about the companies’ activities, which
will be unconditionally useful for practical teaching and job testing.
