Recognizing Talents and Interests
Young people often do not know their abilities and find it difficult to recognize their interests and skills as talents. Here, the regions offer different initiatives to help them.
The Munich Chamber of Crafts (D) helps young people to discover their talents by organizing the "School Workshop". An initiative that consists of a potential analysis and a practical part. On "Girls day" young girls can get a taste of professions through practical exercises and thus discover their own talents, too.
In the region of Rosenheim/Bavaria (D), the "MINTfit" initiative helps young people to assess their level of knowledge in the subjects of mathematics and physics using online tests.
