Recognizing Talents and Interests
Young people often do not know their abilities and have difficulties to recognize their interests and skills as talents. The regions offer various initiatives to help them with this.
The region of Vorarlberg (A) organizes two orientation tools for young people: the "Talent Check" and the "Future Check". Both serve to reflect and identify interests and abilities. In addition, the young people are supported in planning their future steps.
The region of St. Pölten/Lower Austria/Vienna (A) offers the "TalenteCheck Berufsbildung" and the "NÖ TalenteCheck" as orientation tools for young people.
