Experience a Profession
What tasks a profession entails and what the work in the company effectively looks like are two essential points in the decision-making process of a young person choosing a future career. In this context, there are various initiatives that enable SME- Managers to provide everyday practical insights into their work and their company.
The region of Vorarlberg (A) offers the initiative "Vorarlberg Apprenticeship Ambassadors", in which apprentices represent the company as well as the profession. The initiative "Successfully carry out professional practical days in the company" helps SME- Managers to prepare and implement practical insights in the context of company visits. The “i-Messe - the Vorarlberg vocational training fair" offers SME- Managers the opportunity to show practical insights.
The region St. Pölten/Lower Austria/Vienna (A) offers SME- Managers the opportunity to give young people real insights into their firms through the "Bildungsmeile Amstetten-Scheibbs". The "DUO**STARS SUMMERschool" format involves SME- Managers in the form of on-site visits.
