06/04/2023

DUALpro, the service brand of IGCC recently conducted Info-sessions for teachers as well as students of the Indian subcontinent on the topic of Professional Orientation and Vocational Education and Training. These Info-sessions were a part of the conferences organized for Goethe Institut, Max Mueller Bhawan on two different occasions.

At the ‘German Teacher’s Conference West 2023 – Brain Hand Heart’ on 28.01.2023, DUALpro conducted an interactive session to orient the teachers about the importance of Professional Orientation in schools and the services and programmes offered by IGCC in this regard. In this 30-minute session, the teachers were given a small quiz to be aware of their professional interests and inclinations and afterwards were assigned small vocational tasks in groups accordingly. The sectors covered in the session were – design, service, healthcare, hospitality and technology. By solving the quiz and accomplishing the small vocational tasks, the teachers got an overview of how a successful professional orientation programme could benefit the school students immensely. They found the idea of a guided transition from school to the professional world extremely vital to the education system. This kind of programme aligns current job requirements with the Indian government’s vision for vocational education and training for all school students.
