The opportunity for 12th grade students to choose the right major and career from proper career guidance
(Baonghean.vn) - From the end of April 2024, 12th grade students will begin registering for the 2024 high school graduation exam. This is also the time when they stand at the threshold to choose a school, choose a career, and the right orientation will help them have a smooth start.
Bring information to students
The Journey to Start a Business from High School is a career guidance program organized by the Vietnam Academy of Agriculture in collaboration with the Department of Education and Training. In addition to the main point at Le Viet Thuat High School, the program is also connected to many other high schools in the province with the main target being 12th grade students.
I will take the D block exam and at the same time participate in the Competency Assessment Test of Hanoi National University and the University of Education. With many registration methods, I hope I will have many opportunities to enter university. However, at this time, I am really wondering which school to choose and I hope that by coming to this program, I will have many practical advice for myself.
With the main target being senior students, the program “Startup Journey” revolves around the story of choosing a school and choosing a career. In addition to the introduction of the professions being trained at the Vietnam Academy of Agriculture, students participating in the program are also asked many questions about “hot” professions, professions with many job opportunities.
The program also has the participation of experienced speakers sharing knowledge about human resource needs in the 4.0 industrial revolution, and career orientation counseling. From these shares, students have more information to be able to choose careers that suit their abilities and personal interests.
This is a very meaningful workshop for students, especially grade 12 students in the province. For our school, this is an opportunity for us to introduce the school, the admission process as well as the policies to support students during their studies and their future career journey. Currently, the school has over 200 Nghe An students studying at the school each year and I hope that, from this information, students will have more opportunities to choose for the future.
At this time, information aboutadmissionof universities and colleges are posted on many media. At the same time, many schools have chosen to go directly to schools to promote, advise and introduce.
At Nghe An University of Economics, from March until now, the Career Counseling and Admissions Day Program with the theme "Future Orientation - Choosing the Right Career" has been held simultaneously at many high schools such as Dien Chau 2 High School, Do Luong 4 High School, Thai Hoa High School...
In this program, in addition to providing students with admission information, another important content is to guide students in choosing a career that is suitable for their abilities, suitable for labor needs as well as future employment trends.
Previously, at the end of March, the school also coordinated with the Department of Education and Training and Vinh City Youth Union to organize the "Career Counseling and Admissions" Festival for more than 2,000 12th grade students in Vinh city.
The program had the participation of many businesses and entrepreneurs and through direct conversations and consultations, it helped students understand themselves so that they could make decisions about their future careers; choose the right direction after graduating from high school, and gradually learn about the labor market and training market.
Understand yourself and understand your profession
Although the programcareer guidancehas been taught in general schools, but career orientation for high school students still has difficulties and limitations. This common reality makes students very confused when choosing a school and a career.
High school students should be able to experience many careers to discover their interests and passions, so that when they choose to go to university, they can choose a school that suits their abilities and when they graduate, they can meet the needs of the labor market. However, for many different reasons, this is currently not effective.
With the desire to bring students useful information, recently, many schools in the province have made many changes in career guidance and experiential lessons.
At Huynh Thuc Khang High School, in mid-March, the school organized an experiential and career orientation activity with the theme “Training qualities and abilities suitable for chosen careers”. The goal of the program is to support students in their journey of self-orientation and learning about suitable careers in the future.
Meanwhile, for the past 3 consecutive weeks, the flag-raising activities of Le Viet Thuat High School students have also revolved around career orientation topics such as choosing future careers, training according to career orientation, etc.
This is valuable information not only for grade 12 students but also for all students in the school, because the right career orientation will help them choose the right subjects. Moreover, it also helps them choose the university they love early and gives them the motivation to strive.
At this time, 12th grade students are preparing to apply and enroll in universities. However, in reality, their understanding of the profession is still limited, and many students even choose to follow the majority, follow their friends...
To provide students with useful information, our school organizes many activities at the same time, such as organizing universities to come to consult and recruit students, organizing forums for students to explore themselves, express their dreams and aspirations. As for teachers, in addition to implementing career guidance lessons according to regulations, they also support students in the process of searching for information, listening and giving them meaningful advice so that they can make appropriate choices for themselves.
At Hoang Mai 2 High School, before this year’s admission season, when universities and colleges wanted to come to the school to do admissions consulting, the school always created all the conditions to support. In addition to centralized consulting, many schools also organized consulting for each class for 2 groups: students and parents.
Along with that, many counseling sessions organized by the school with the theme "Understanding yourself - Understanding your career" were also implemented and received the attention and excitement of many students.
Due to the low entrance requirements, only 20% of our students enroll in universities. However, students often choose universities and colleges in Vinh city. The rest often go to study abroad or go to vocational training or go to work abroad. Through counseling sessions, many students have chosen universities and colleges near their home. If students encounter difficulties, the school's career counseling team will be ready to support and accompany students and promptly give them useful and practical advice.
To fully update the information, at this time, the personal pages of the schools have also promptly shared a lot of useful information for the 12th grade students. Some schools also organize counseling sessions with the participation of former students to help them have clear career orientations. That companionship is a favorable first step for students to be more confident in themselves and help them boldly choose suitable careers to promote their abilities in the future./.
